What do you do for headaches?

I woke up today with a gnarly pressure headache that persisted for awhile and left me sitting around extra sluggish.
So I did some reading and tried a few things, I nibbled some ginger, made some herbal tea, ate some pepper, and drank a ton of water.
Well after some light napping I awoke to find my headache was almost entirely gone. I think the ginger and spice really did the trick 
If anyone has a nasty headache eat some spice ( I used a little cayenne) and make some ginger tea or nibble on some root. Really helped a ton for me.

Many headaches are caused by dehydration
The ones that aren't I find to be somewhat soothed by eating very spicy food

Yeah water was probably the culprit, I smoked a lot last night and stayed up late, ate a big 2-4AM meal and woke up and threw up some bile...
I need to stop eating in the middle of the night I was surprised to read about spice helping but apparently they compete for receptors or something.
Doesn't spice also help with bloodflow or something possibly?

I haven't felt like eating today, probably due to my huge late night second dinner... Just took a dab though so hopefully I will be hungry soon.

I used to get bad headaches like every other day when I was a kid/teen, but then again I also spent a lot of time staring at a TV in those days
Ever since I started smoking dank weed regularly I stopped getting headaches, I mean I still get them sometimes but nowhere near as often as I do when I'm sober, some really good skunky weed just knocks out any headache I've ever had, even simply breaking the weed up and sniffing it helps a lot

I don't drink ever and the only head aches smoking gives me is when I seriously overdo it or let myself get dehydrated.

I used to get head aches after sitting in front of the TV for lengths of time. I've noticed though that after using psilocybin mushrooms regularly, I rarely get head aches any more.
Though I do notice spikes of intense pain isolate around my temples from time to time. Very brief, only lasting a few seconds at most.

Lots of strong coffee is like the silver bullet for headaches in my experience

I have daily headaches due to a small cyst in my maxillary sinus cavity. What usually helps me is cannabis, spicy foods, hot shower/heating pad, dark rooms && silence.

Thanks for reminding me I take one occasionally but its really potent and often upsets my stomach unless I remember to take it with a meal.

Multi vits are not a great idea imo, your body doesnt absorb refined vitamins well, lots of studies show no increase in health in vitamin consumers, some studies show increase in certain chronic diseases in vitamin consumers compared to non vitamin consumers.
Just eat ur damn spinach
