ANSWER:

This is permissible. 

You should also try cupping as it is very beneficial for your headaches. 

I work in a hospital. And I have the issue of repeated episodes of headache, sometimes very severe which impairs my work. My question is, during fasting, can I use transdermal patches of painkiller medicine which are placed on skin and the drug gets absorbed directly through the skin into blood?

In my country India, the following dua is recited before opening fast Allahumma laka sumtu wa bika amantu wa `alayka tawakkaltu wa `ala rizqika aftartu. Is it authentic? If not what to say before opening fast?

I had read in a Hadith that aside from the seven things that invalidate the fasts, sins also can invalidate a fast, so does it mean both major and minor sins, or does it mean sins done consistently the whole day invalidate the fast?
