Comment on Would a surgical puncture to the skull relieve a pressure headache?

Bruh. No. The headache is not caused by cranial pressure.
Your sinuses may be inflamed, and relieving that pressure might provide temporary relief (like pressing on your forehead) but a hole in your skull wouldn’t fix the underlying sinus problem, and would likely result in worse infections and irritation.
Oh dont worry, this is all purely speculative.
The pain is almost always centered right behind and above the eyeballs. Even when first waking up or not actively straining eyes, usually accompanied by barometric shift.
It’s not like ocular migraines because it doesn’t give any visual flashing or anything like you’d associate with usually.
It’s likely my sleeping, switched to shkikifuton & tatami to try and counteract backpain from soft matresses, but my neck seems to suffer instead.
And even then you should only let your doctors 16-year-old daughter drill the hole…

Too soon lol
They make earplugs for migraines caused by barometric shifts. The company is called weatherx. I’m wearing mine right now.
That’s the first I’ve heard of that solution. I’ll definitely look into them, thanks!

Don’t listen to this person. Drill a hole in your head. The documentary, Pi, showed that this works.

I shouldn’t be surprised at this comment, Piholes seem fairly popular on Lemmy
