i personally don't like taking medication, so i tend to stay away from asprin, Ibuprofen, etc if i can avoid it. But if I need some kind of relief (and not able to lay down...like when I'm at work or school, for instance), i do have a little trick i learned from a massage therapist a while back.
with your palms facing outward, place your thumbs on the bridge of your nose (right thumb on the right side of the nose, left thumb on the left side of the nose) using the pad of your thumbs, press (not too hard at first, but steadily increasing pressure as you do it) into the bridge, and up along the eyebrow bone. be sure you are pressing up when going along the brow bone...you don't want to be pressing ON it, you want to be pressing UP UNDERNEATH the brow.
Doing this a few times relieves the pressure in the head from headaches...at least...it works for me. Hope this helps! :)

Sleep in a dark room for 30 mins. An ice pack can help as well. Drink plenty of water. Go to the toilet (I kid you not if you are constipated you can get headaches). I have heard tigers balm is good for headaches, never tried it myself though

A warm bath with Lavender and Camille are good remedies. They help with a lot of things. Avoid caffeine of course but i probably dont have to tell you that. If it is possible dim your lights or keep them limited. Warm washcloth over your eyes and some piece and quiet are great contributers as well. Good luck and I pray you feel better soon!

Take a Tylenol and go lay down. You get a bowl and put some cold water and vinegar in it, then you put the washcloth into it and then take the washcloth out of the water and ring it very good and then put it on your forehead.

I heard from several people that this works, but have not tried it myself.
Get two tubs. Fill one with ice water and the other with hot water(as hot as you can stand).
Submerge your your arms (fingertips to elbows) first in one then the other. Repeat several times. It's supposed to contract and expand your blood vessels and make your headache go away.

i take an Advil and then my younger cousin came up with taking a bounty paper towel, soaking it with water and leaving it in the freezer for a while and then putting it on your forehead. i thought it was pretty stupid until i tried it.. it worked for me. at least temporary.

get two pieces of Ginger and gently massage them to your temples.
the other idea I've recently discovered:
gently massage and apply pressure slowly to the fleshy part between your thumb and forefinger, do this for about a minute to each hand. If the pressure is not at least a bit relieved, try drinking a full glass of water and try again. (let me know how that works for you as I'm curious how effective other people find it).
Sometimes a cold cloth over your forehead/eyes helps relieve the pressure.

Yes, here they are, just try.
Pl try cold water bath and observe, if pain increases use warm.
If you have cough/cold body hot water bath will help.
Pl try simple acupressure given below for immediate relief.
If it fails you will have to go for Acupuncture.
There is hardly any medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for RA, OA, Back ache and almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic.
Acidity, WORRY, sadness, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation; drug side effects, stress, bad smell, TV & COMPUTER SOMETIMES, Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy, BODY CONSTITUTION etc are their causes.
None of them can be treated with medicine.
Our 100% success in treating migraine &H/A confirms it.
Acupuncture is the best treatment.
I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see.
Pain killers don't treat the pain but we loose the sense of pain for some time; in that duration our body itself treats sometime and credit goes to meds.
The useless drugs have tremendous power of side effects like liver/kidney failures, ulcer, inflammation of intestines and lot more.
Avoid late sleeping if possible; worry, tension, spicy foods, sour fruits, stale bakery foods, SMOKING and alcohole.
Sweet foods, COCOANUT WATER,sweet fruits, milk, rice, SPROUTS, SALADS and good sleep will help if cough is not there.
But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it is very strong.
If it is acute pl search a painful point (with round tipped pen/jimmy) 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds.
For forehead/eye pain the points are in front of nails on the finger tips or 3-7 mm below.
It may disappear naturally too.
