Well,

i've had migraines ever since the beginning of secondary school till now.

I know it's extremely common for young people to experience severe migraines.

Although i always resort to popping panadols to numb the pain, the effect of panadols on my organs will be dangerous for long term.

Therefore i would like to seek out some remedies that u guys have for curing severe migraines.

help me solve my migraine problem!

P.S i always have migraines at my temples, around the eye nerves too.

go seek advice from a doctor?

i have seeked advice from doctors and most of the time they said, " don't worry it's very common" and prescribe me with panadols

haha must ask them one mah..cannot like u tell the doctor u got migraines then he/she give u some panadols then settle liao.. Need to ask what if it doesnt work and ask him/her to do a further check on u

if the doctor says it`s normal go to another doctor .

My ex girlfriend`s auntie had the same problem . She always have headach then go to the family clinic then the doctor keep saying it`s just normal headach .

But a few months later she fainted and they found out she had cancer .

panadol kills your liver

headaches are usually caused by ionic imbalance in your brain.

try drinking 100 plus mix with water (1 part 100 plus to 4 parts water)

migraines is a headache that occur on either one side of the brain hemisphere. As you know the left side of our brain control our right side limbs and movement, and vice versa for our right side of the brain. So depend on when your migraines is, you should seek to relax on the side/movement.

There are many migraines patient seeking meditation, be it yoga, self, zen or any other med, our brain seek to relax and be in serenity, do not complicate things you think of, seek the simple thinking and be contend with life.

When we think, dophmine agent is release in our brain, for migraines patient, the problem is too my dophmine is released, so having a cool mind, non aggressive attitude, seek contention rather than spending all your life in pursuing money and glory, you will find sickness and illness will befall upon you. As the saying goes, Nothing is for free.

CAFFEINE!!!

If I get a headache, i would normally consume coffee.

it's seems migraine is a young thingy...nvr heard of it during our times.....or is it during our times they called it TOU HONG??

i'm not someone who studies veri hard, who works very hard. i simply live a stress-free life and yet migraine still attacks me though.

yea migraine seems to affect most of the young in this century, no one knows why i guess.

and chibet

i have tried the 100plus remedy, it worked for me for the first time, but after that everytime i consume it, my headache just make me vomit it all out so it didn't work for me after that ler.

and i'm currently relying on 2 tablets of panadol extra. taking it like 3-4 times a week maximum.

traditional chinese medicine? i don't recall taking the medicine..

but i went for acupuncture b4. result  = failure.

Do a handstand meditation every day for 5 to 10 minutes.

wahh. if i do that, the blood will all concentrate in my brain, den i die faster i tik.

do u also have sinus problem?

"In fact, caffeine is a key ingredient in almost all of the over-the-counter migraine medications. That's because caffeine is useful in stopping a headache once it starts," she continues. "The unfortunate thing is that, in patients who use caffeine chronically, they're much more likely to get a migraine as the caffeine begins to wear off."
