Are Daith And Tragus Piercings Effective In Treating Migraine?
Dear Doctor, I have been suffering with migranes and chronic tension headaches for my entire life. I am on topamax to help relieve migranes symptoms. I recently heard about getting a tragus piercing to help or a daith piercing in your ear to help with headaches. Have you heard of either of these? My job allows tragus piercings I m not sure about daith but I want to be sure that it will either improve or at least not worsen any headaches. Your feedback is much appreciated. Thank you.

Many people have reported good relief in their symptoms by this.
It works by the prinnciple of acupuncture.
I advise you to do this.
