A migraine is more than just a headache. It’s a complex neurological condition that can cause a variety of symptoms. As someone who has experienced headaches, you understand just how painful this condition can be. Prevention and early action when migraine strikes are key to keeping this condition under control.

Here are ways you can treat your migraine early and keep it from getting worse.  

A Cold Compress

Cold therapy has been used to treat migraine for more than 100 years. Some theories have suggested that cold therapy can help constrict blood vessels or slow the nerve signals involved with migraine pain.

Hydrate

Dehydration can cause headaches and even migraine, but new research shows hydration can reduce and possibly even prevent them. In the study, people who drank their recommended daily water intake had headaches that were: less frequent, less severe, and shorter in duration.

Over The Counter Pain Relievers

Pain relievers available without a prescription are usually the first line of treatment for reducing all kinds of body pain. When a migraine hits and you need quick relief, you might head to your local pharmacy for Pain-relieving medications. Sudrex is an analgesic that has been trusted since 2000 as an expert in relieving headaches. Sudrex acts quickly and can be taken before or after a meal and keeps you active all through the day.

Caffeine

A cup of coffee may help stop a migraine, but make sure you don’t drink too much. Drinking more than one cup of coffee could set you up for a caffeine withdrawal headache later.

Avoid Excessive Chewing

People have to eat to survive, and chewing is an important part of eating. However, studies suggest that excessive chewing might be linked to more headaches and even migraine. Researchers focused on gum-chewing for the study and found that tension headaches and migraine were more common in people who chewed gum frequently.

Recognize Triggers

One of the best ways to prevent migraine is to identify and avoid things that can trigger it. Many doctors recommend that their patients with migraine keep a journal of what they ate or what they were doing when they developed a migraine to look for patterns. Everyone has different triggers and these can range from sleep patterns to certain foods. Even a lack of food and low blood sugar can lead to a migraine.

The keys to treating migraine are to know and avoid your triggers, treat symptoms early, and find medications or therapies that work best to relieve your specific type of migraine pain. If you need quick relief, you can always count on Sudrex as the expert in relieving the pain.
