Daith Piercing for Migraines: 3 Month Update & Grossness

Is the headache piercing everything it’s cracked up to be? Here’s my three-month update:

Out of complete frustration and exhaustion coming up on day 3 of a full-blown migraine, I decided enough was enough. I found a local tattoo parlor that specializes in the Daith Piercing and decided it was now or never. 

Well, it’s been two months and I wanted to give you my completely honest update.

So, it seems as if I hit a small snag with my Daith Piercing. I must have slept on it wrong causing it to swell and become extremely sore. It also has a yellow bubble around the actual hole of the piercing. They did tell me it could take up to four months to heal so I am hoping this is just part of the process.

Besides this new grossness, nothing else has really changed too much. The headaches have gotten so much better and I’m getting maybe 2-3 migraines a month compared to several a week. My most recent migraines have been direct results of my own actions and lack of self-care.
