Ice pack

I've been suffering from migraine for about 14 years now, ice packs are definitely an important part in my "migraine kit". I use a gallon size ziplock bag, fill it with as much ice as possible & double or triple bag it & use it as a pillow. Obviously it doesn't cover my eyes, but it does cover the whole back part of my head & neck. I carry ziplock bags with me everywhere.

Hi Mary,

Thanks for your question! There are a few products (I'm not endorsing, just letting you know they are out there) you may be interested in trying. MigraCap covers most of the head, not so much the neck. If you do a Google search for headache or migraine cooling hats, a whole host of things comes up.

Kerrie wrote an extensive article on cooling products, vests and whatnot, that is very interesting. This may not be what you need, but I thought it was worth sharing with you; https://migraine.com/blog/secret-weapon-for-heat-triggers/.

Let us know which one you find works for you.

Hi Dee94277,

Thank you for sharing what is in your migraine tool kit - good ideas! I hope it's OK if I share with you information on comfort measures? There are some things I hadn't thought about and so happy I read these article; https://migraine.com/blog/comfort-measure-basics/comments/#comments.
