You suffer from them?
Have a nice cuppa tea that fixes everything or. You can eat some parsley raw or some thyme herb raw also they fix almost any head pain no worries

RE: Migraines and Headaches
well i know you asked for something so that you do not have to take drugs but my mum specialises in Migrances, she sells a drug called 'Maxalt'. they do it in a melt formulation, so all you do is place something on your tonge and it melts instantly. it gives pain relife in under 30 mins. they are very convient to you and you do not need water.so if it is the fact that you do not like taking pills this is a possible solution. they are avalabile from your GP, prescription only
Hope that helps

O.P. RE: Migraines and Headaches
I can take pills I take a migraine preventer every night but there are quite a few times when It doesn't work or I miss a dose but generally I have been better with the preventer
I have taken so much drugs for migraines and headaches and I don't want to damage my organs by taking to more drugs that's why I am asking
and a migraine preventer does not prevent my headaches
EDIT: response to cool fruits post below
it's not because of my compter It's in school doing work in class, at reccess, in the car

If you get them due to your computer turn your re-fresh rate down.

RE: Migraines and Headaches
I get migraines all the time. Ive been the doctors loads and there useless, they give me aspirin or something. Tbh I dont really know how to cure a migraine but whenever I get one it hurts to look at the light so I get in bed, pull the covers over my head and sleep.
And when your heart begins to bleed, your dead
and dead and dead indeed.

RE: Migraines and Headaches
A thing I notice helps stop headaches etc is to exercise often, and eat a good diet. The worse thing you can do is take pills if you are a constant sufferer, your body can become addictive to them and you will notice your headaches become more frequent .

RE: Migraines and Headaches
I too suffer from migraines from time to time. What i do is as soon as i feel it's getting a bit more than a headache (but its still an acceptable headache) is take a good strong painkiller and rest for a bit (if possible). Once it's progressed to a migraine there's nothing you can do (exept maybe with prescribed meds, regular painkillers will only make you vomit at that point) but lay down, place a wet cold cloth over your forehead and eyes and try to sleep it off.
Try and avoid stress as much as possible as this is a big migraine trigger. Some foods also trigger these...like chocolate, nuts and dairy products (cheese does for me in times that i'm vulnarable to em) so don't eat those when you have an upcomming headache.
If migraines occur often/frequently go see your doctor.

RE: Migraines and Headaches
I suffer from migraines quite badly, luckily it hasn't been to bad for a while. The course of mine, according to a specialist I saw, is that my 'turbenets' are swollen, and therefore I don't get enough air/oxygen into my head.
I usually just take paracetamol =p
