Hey so Firefighter/EMT here! The reason for this is very simple at heart! Most common headaches are caused by lack of water in the brain. Your brain like any other muscle in the body needs water, your brain also sits inside of a sort of sack called the dura matter! It’s technically 3 layers but for simplicity we’ll call it the Dura! Your Dura protects the brain from the inside of your skull. It’s what holds spinal fluid and other liquids to protect the brain in regular day life during impacts like walking, running, laying down, sports, etc. The main reason people get headaches is because the Dura is dehydrated. Your Brain does not have pain receptors, this is why open brain surgery is usually done whilst the patient is awake and responsive! So what your feeling is actually your brains Dura screaming at you for water because it’s so dry it shrank inside your head and it feels like it’s stretching. Imagine trying to stretch dry leather around a basketball. Or a dry leather glove over a hand. It hurts. The reason for your symptoms being solved the way you solved it is because the blood vessels in your Dura, due to dryness, and shrinkage, where being put under stress. When you clipped your eye brow, that let your brain know to send blood to that location because that sort of pintching causes swelling and inflammation, so basically you moved blockage from your dry overwhelmed Dura to your not stressed out skin and it calmed down the swelling the Dura was feeling from a heighten dry blood pressure! Good Job!

The firefighter is an example why I hate people who says “search it on google” because an answer from an actual human being is more informative and relatable + easy to understand. Thank you, firefighter!! 🥰

It’s a pressure point for migraines. A daith piercing will do the same 🥰

Advice… Hot water bottle with cover. Sleep on it. Your upset tummy have too much acid. Eat cereals or weetabix with milk. It will stop acid. Then your headache will start to fade away. Headache and upset tummy are linked. I don’t know why. It’s work for me.

Because you created a new sensation competing with the original pain. You essentially created a pressure point triggering your facial nerve pain receptors.

I’ve been dealing with headaches for several days. Even currently. I don’t have a claw clip…but wonder if using my fingers to pinch that area might help.

It’s called the gate control theory of pain. I learned about in college. You’re hacking your nervous system by distracting the nerve track.
