Ghazal asked:
Yesterday I was at a fundraiser event where we had to walk around a field, and unfortunately it was extremely hot. I drank tons of fluids especially water to avoid getting dehydrated but still I ended up getting a migraine and had to leave early. And I still have a headache today even though I took Ibuprofen and got a good night’s sleep…what else should I do?

Drink gatorade. Caffeine is supposed to help when you have a migraine, so take them. I get migraines, and a neurologist gave me a prescription for 600mg of ibuprofen… You can take an advil or two. Turn off all of the lights and close any blinds. Rest and stay in bed. Don’t strain your eyes, so don’t do any reading or watch tv. Don’t eat things like cheese, chocolate, and wine. And whenever you can tell your about to get a headache, take some advil.

Try a warm not hot bath.
