Can Cold Compress Or Hot Compress On Neck Help Barometric Pressure Headache?
Can cold compress or hot compress on neck help with barometric headaches. I have tried a med for headaches that was a prescription from my GP but the made my head feel worst (only took 2 total (2hrs apart) the side effects listed was not worth the risk. Sorry I did no know I had to pay for an answer. Thank You for your time. No do not continue.

Dear sir
Front of the neck contain barometric receptors which when stimulates causes variation of blood pressure. But the back of the meal might not contain any receptors. It is unlikely to cause any pressure variation in the head. So please try to explore other causes by doing further investigations like ct scan head
Thanks
