That said does anyone have any tips for having a headache?

Edit: it turns out I have a fever

    In addition to the other suggestions here, these are two (and a half) tips that work for me:

    1. Ice pack or cool cloth on the back of your neck and forehead. The cold restricts blood flow in the area, which can help ease pain.

    2. Soak your feet in warm water (or find other ways to make your feet warm without warming up the rest of you). The heat expands the blood vessels, encouraging blood flow in your feet, which draws blood away from your head and can help ease pain.

    0.5. There is a pressure point in your hand (called L14), between the thumb and forefinger, that can help relieve headache pain. YMMV, of course.

    I hope you feel better!
