Observe

We must first observe the pain that we are experiencing. Is it moderate pain or is it severe pain wherein we may encounter a throbbing or pulsing feeling. If the pain is unbearable, consult a specialist immediately.

Take a rest

You might be stressed out because of the load in your work. Stress is one of the most common reasons why we experience head pain or migraine. If we knew in ourselves that we are overworked, take a breather and rest a bit.

Drink lots of fluid, keep hydrated

It is known that taking 8–10 glasses of water a day can be beneficial to anybody in terms of their health. By doing this our body is hydrated and we all know that dehydration too is a common reason why an individual experience not only migraine but severe complications also.
