Topical Pain Reliever

If you can do this very carefully, apply some BenGay™ topical pain reliever to the affected area. This is tricky because this will be near your eye. If you can’t do this well, apply it to your face as near to the affected area as you can get. This only works with the BenGay product that has a strong odor. Once you do this, you must sit down or lie down because it will make your eyes water and want to shut. Strangely, most people with cluster headaches will find this watering relieves some congestion and the topical pain reliever will help the pain. Do not get the cream in your eye! When the headache is over, wash your face very carefully to get the cream off and not in your eye.

Watch Your Diet

Watch your diet. The biggest culprit for brining on cluster headaches is sugar, since sugar promotes inflammation in the body and inflammation of nerves in the brain can trigger the headache. Cluster headaches are blessedly rare—less than one percent of the population will ever have one. But that’s about as common as multiple sclerosis (MS) which is still a major public health problem. People with cluster headaches find little to no relief in the conventional cures, but there are some natural treatments for cluster headaches that work, or at least work well enough to mitigate some of the pain. Most people who suffer with cluster headaches eventually stop having them. In more than half of people with cluster headaches, the headaches will one day—for no apparent reason—go away for good.
