      Before or after the sex and booze?
      Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

              Have you got someone who can give you a neck/shoulder massage?

              You can do it yourself but it's not the same (back to the sex and alcohol...)

                Yep. You've got to sleep it off. Make sure you've had enough to drink and then go to sleep in a dark and quiet room. If you wake up and you still have a headache then go and see the quack.

                  If you're going to ingest something, it being "natural" won't stop it interacting with the cocktail of drugs you're already taking.
                  Unless you mean something that you don't actually take, such as the massage suggestions, and so on, then there is a danger of taking something "natural" where the chemicals that make it up will still cause problems. Natural things are just as chemical as man-made drugs, just generally less effective.

                      When I a two slipped disks in my neck I was on a bundle of drugs and still managed to get a migraine headache. After 2 days, the doctor sent me to the hospital were they dripped anti-migraine stuff into my veins, while carefully monitoring my vital signs. Thirty minutes later all the pain was gone. Which was nice.

                      The docs said the migraine was probably caused by all the medication.

                      Topical pain relief:
                      Hot towel around your neck
                      Hot flannel on the face, alternated by cold flannel.
                      Saline nasal spray

                      Morphine will remove the pain. But it may make you feel very nauseous for a while.
