Put your hands and feet in warm/hot water and an ice pack on the back of your neck. The heat helps pull the extra blood from your head into your other extremities. You have a lot more blood pumping through your body right now so migraines are typical.

Hot or ice cold wet washcloth over the forehead. Ice cold works for me but everyone is different. Hope this helps.
