1. Soaking your hands and feet in BOILING hot water with onions inside. Also, cold compress/ice pack on your forehead and back of neck.2. Press cold towel or a cold jar of liquid against your head
3. orgasms
4. squeeze the fleshy part of your hand between your thumb and fingers
5. Supposedly, if you pinch the skin between your thumb and forefinger it will relieve a headache. But, since I get migraines it never worked for me, but I have friends who swear by that method.
6. Get in a quiet place and just lay your head down.Do that for about 10 minutes. or until it stops
7. try a large glass of gator-aid it will relieve the headache almost immediately
8. Tie up the head real tight with a rag, and go to bed, but before you do that, drink a glass of real cold (not freezing cold) water.
9. sit up in a dark room with a cold cloth across your forehead
10. I get severe migraines to the point the sometimes I have to go to the hospital so I know all about headaches!
A warm or cold compress on your head (which ever works best for you -cold works for me -warm works for others.) Over the counter Excedrin headache or Excedrin migraine works great and gets into your system fast! If your headache is accompanied with tight muscles in your neck, applying bengay or any arthritis hot/cold cream helps a lot! If you have facial pain with it, Benadryl on top of pain reliever (like Excedrin headache), or just take Benadryl sinus headache and then you won't need to take a pain reliever.
11. Depend on the cause of the headache.
Put a cold towell on your head and place your feet in hot water. Yes it works.
Practice good posture and deep breathing while you roll your shoulders backwards.
Massage pure lavender oil on your temples
