Water, and sleep it off.
In my experience.It pays to drink a glass of water before bed after an evening of alcohol.
You sure? My wallet has always gotten smaller the next morning after drinking alcohol, whether or not I drank water before bed.

Eat a steak before going to bed too, in that case. Meat works wonders for hangovers.
Don’t forget the wet socks!

To add to this: if you take ibuprofen regularly, remember to eat before taking it. Taking it on an empty stomach a handful of times is completely fine, but if you do it too much can cause stomach ulcers (not insanely common as far as I’m aware though.).
Anyway, this person is right, take some ibuprofen and rest.
Naproxen is what works for me.
My headaches are mostly tension from hamstrings on up the back.
A sinus rinse and Sudafed helps when it’s sinus congestion.
A Guillotine.
Paracetamol. Make sure you are well hydrated and a bit fed as well.
Ibuprofen and caffeine. After consuming, lay down and try to nap until the caffeine hits.
What kind of headache is it?
What do you mean?
Like a migraine, sinus, pressure, or tension. Did anything seem to cause it? Does anything make it worse?
Tension. Nothing seems to have made it worse, just got progressively more noticeable.
I do a lot of face-to-face interaction at work, and I started getting tension headaches from the minor smiling and face control. When I notice I’m tensing my ears and scalp, I try to be mindful about relaxing them. If you’re not experienced with mindful meditation, you might try a 5-minute “body scan” exercise to get familiar with targeted relaxation. You don’t have to do the whole exercise every time, but it helps to learn what “relaxing your scalp” feels like.
My doctor also prescribed me diclofenac gel, which is a topical NSAID like Ibuprofen. It’s usually prescribed for arthritis pain. I’m bald, so I can put it on the top and back of my head. It’s completely changed my workday. I’m less exhausted at the end of the day. My scalp might be tightening but I can’t feel it.
Stretch, yoga, meditate.

Some people get them pierced to prevent migraines
Really? I get migraines. Does it have to be done a certain way by a medical provider, or can I just go to a place that does piercings? My migraines are incapacitating, so I’ll try anything

Yeah, I should see if I can find an acupuncturist here. There are probably meds I should be on, but the ones they prescribed me at the regular clinic didn’t work, and I can’t afford to keep going back.
If you regularly consume caffeine and haven’t recently: caffeine.
If you regularly consume nicotine but haven’t recently: nicotine.
If you regularly consume any drug, really, but haven’t recently: youre probably experiencing withdrawal; the most common side effects from withdrawal of most substances is a headache.
Lots of water, a quality meal and fresh air.
I typically go for a hike.
As other’s have said, hydration. But that’s only if you’re dehydrated. There is a pressure point near the base of your thumb, a bit towards your pointer finger. You can look it up for more specifics. I find that hitting that pressure point helps about 20% of my headaches.
Caffeine, ibuprofen and a long walk combo helps me sometimes. I’m pissed they no longer sell ibuprofen with codeine here, that shit used to help me real fast.
Agree with the others here.
For future prevention, if you have money and since it’s a tension headache - you might consider some corrective massage.
Sleep
< deleted. pls find info on fb/yt > …
find the cause (inflamation, etc)For me it’s two 200 mg Ibuprofen.
Two 250 mg acetaminophen works, but not as well.
Aspirin kinda sucks for me in this role so I don’t use it.
