Half decent headache remedies please?

Question

I have a bloody mammoth of a headache, not a migraine, but it doesnt exactly tickle either. Can't go to bed for a few hrs and I have popped a couple painkillers but seem to have done bugger all.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Answer 1

squash your head and ears in between two pillows in a dark room, dark and cold and quiet... or ice pack to the head is amazingly soothing,  if not able try specifically ibuprofen or alleve. good luck, i hate them~

Answer 3

i get migraines and i find massaging my head really really helps. so just rub your head all over. I go to me room and lay in the darkness while i rub my head and i find that really helps.
