Benzocaine cream

Hi,
I have cerebral palsy and use a wheelchair I also have migraine. Most of my migraines start on my forehead. Recently I discovered that putting over the counter, topical benzocaine on the side of my forehead that is hurting helps me a lot. It does take a lot of it though. The tube says it’s designed for boils. I’m also on Relpax but I am happy to have found something that works much faster than 2 hours

  1. Hello pinkwheels, thank you so much for sharing the benefit you are finding from using benzocaine cream. I'm glad you have found something that is helping you manage your symptoms! Wishing you a gentle day. ~Allyson (Migraine.com team)
