Usually whenever I get a headache, I either tug on my hair from the base of my scalp and on both sides (strange I know, but it works for me, and it's a 50% chance of it working!) or I take a nap whenever I have spare time and have nothing going on today, and sleeping it off always works, though I only do it when the headache is bothering me for too long and if I'm not doing any work. I also drink a lot of water because there's times when I forget to hydrate properly and that's usually the cause of my headaches.

I get random migraines around once a month due to a condition I had brain surgery for a few years back. Unfortunately it's a chronic condition so while it won't get any worse, it also won't get any better. While waiting for the sweet solace of my drugs and sleep to kick in, I swear by the TheraICE Migraine Relief Cap. Here's a link to it on Amazon if you have the extra money to splurge, but I'm sure also any cold or frozen t-shirt or wash cloth would work as well. Having that freezing thing around my head, forehead, and eyes really does something for me.
