3. Drinking Coffee
Caffeine is listed amongst one of the most common trigger-substances for migraines and headaches – so why on earth would drinking coffee be on a list for getting rid of migraine headaches?
Easy: In large amounts, caffeine can have disastrous consequences for your health and body – and you could have everything from heart palpitations to tremors showing up as associated symptoms.
But in small amounts, caffeine can open up the blood vessels – and that’s what’s usually causing a migraine headache.
Remember that you should only do this in small amounts, and if you find that it has made your migraine any worse, avoid caffeine entirely and try another tip on this list to see if it can bring your headache some relief.
If you still want to have the taste of coffee and find that it’s a trigger for your headaches, most people find that decaf doesn’t have this severe effect – and won’t trigger a headache.
