What are cures for migrains?

Answer 1

You can always treat a migraine with over the counter or prescription meds. I heard Head On is very effective. Sometimes, tension and stress can trigger a migraine. In addition, high sodium foods can cause this annoying pain. Apply a cold cloth to the forehead and see whether this eases the pain. Do this in conjunction with medication. I once eased a migraine by drinking Coke.

Unfold and refold the towel putting the frozen section in the middle and the wet sections to the outside. Later you can place it over head and eyes.
