What to do for headaches

My doctor has advised me to avoid all medication. OTC and prescription. Is there something I can do for the migraine headache I’m getting. I’m aware it’s withdrawal, but I still have to work

It sucks you have a headache.  I am still getting headaches, but I think they are associated with sinus issues and are not migraines.  Does a hot shower or breathing in steam help at all?

Maybe an ice pack?

You have my sympathy

I was once told to lie down, get my legs above my heart, wrap an Ace bandage around my head so it put pressure on my temples, and use an ice pack on those areas, as well.  I no longer remember if it worked....but it sure can't hurt to try!!!

Hope you feel better!

I would advise not to think too much ... headache will ease out. may be hereditary.. take rest.

Hope you get rid of headache soon,

All the best

Two natural remedies, magnesium and noni juice.  Slow deep breaths, feel better.
