Rest: If possible, lie down in a dark, quiet room and try to relax.
Medication: Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can be effective. Follow the recommended dosage.
Cold/Hot Compress: Applying a cold pack to your forehead or a warm cloth to your neck can help reduce tension.
Caffeine: Sometimes, a small amount of caffeine can help relieve headache pain, but be cautious, as too much caffeine can also trigger headaches.
Massage: Gently massaging your temples, neck, and shoulders can help relieve tension.
Fresh Air: Sometimes stepping outside for fresh air or taking a short walk can help alleviate a headache.
If your headache is severe, persistent, or accompanied by other symptoms like nausea, vision changes, or confusion, it’s important to seek medical advice as it could be a sign of a more serious condition.
