I have a severe headache behind my right eye and upwards to my temple. suggestions to relieve pain if i have already iced it and taken ibuprofen?

?migraine: Rub base of right mastoid at very bottom for about 5 minutes, as this might trigger the Greater Occipital Nerve. The other approach is to compress the web space between the right thumb and index finger for about 3-5 minutes. But don't expect miracles otherwise. You likely have migraine, but could have occult jaw or dental problems, so see your doctor.
