Having Migraines are a really painful thing, and when you go through one, that's the most painful phase.
Let me first brief you about migraines, and then I'll give you the tips which would help to go through the painful migraine attacks. So migraine is a form of a headache that when you have, you feel a throbbing pain on one side of your head. To make it worse, these migraine attacks are often accompanied by nausea, vomiting and sensitivity to light and sound. Now the question arises how to deal with it? You just have to take the right medication and follow some tips that I’ll tell you.
Tip #1
Try using essential oils. Using essential oil is a natural remedy that is often used to cure headaches. For example, essential oil-based on lavender is found to cure headaches and also reduce stress and anxiety levels. In a small pilot study, it has been found that inhaling the fragrance of the oil extracted from lavender has helped in reducing the severity of the pain caused by migraine.
Tip #2
Manage the stress. Stress is found to be a common mechanism that triggers a migraine. If you lead a stressful life, then it will become a cyclic thing, where a stressful situation will cause migraine pain, then the pain will trigger more stress, and then the stress again will trigger another migraine attack. Follow certain exercises which will help you to vent out the stress, like you can write journals, exercise, do yoga, or you can also meditate. In this way, you can reduce your stress level and deal with frequent migraine attacks.
Tip #3
A warm relaxing bath. Yes, a warm relaxing bath will help you in reducing the migraine pain by a lot. When your muscles are stressed, then you cannot relax and in order to relax your muscles, take a warm bath. It would be a cherry on top if you could light up some scented candles; it will also help to ease the pain.
Tip #4
Keep your eyes away from screens. Another thing that massively triggers migraines is the blue light coming out of the computer screen or the screen of your smartphone. This blue hue coming out of the screens causes severe pain if you have migraine issues. So whenever you feel that the attack is about to start, shut down your computer and switch off your phone. It will help a lot.
