Daith Pierce
Hello.
I am thinking about getting a daith piercing for chronic migraines. I have used just about everything all over the years. I currently take propranolol, but it seems to becoming less effective and I frequently get breakthrough migraines lasting for days.
I see a lot of people say that this pierce is very painful, just wondered if it is more painful than a helix pierce or a navel pierce, which I have had previously?
Thanks in advance. Cate
A nurse does piercings and she said to do it on the opposite side of your margarine. I had mine on the right so got my daith on the left. It hurts like a mofo but she said I have thick cartilage, took 3 tries to get it through. My mom’s chiropractor says the more you use a pressure point the less it works. My migraine went away for awhile. I’m get them from time to time, maybe not as bad.
I have suffered debilitating migraines for more than 10 years and have tried multiple RX prevention meds and treatments, including Botox. I still had daily migraines that 2 doses of RX rescue meds would not get rid of. A year ago, after months of research on Daith Piercing, I finally had mine pierced. It was uncomfortable during the initial piercing, but not more than chronic migraines! My migraines have been reduced in frequency AND intensity!! Now I only have a migraine once or twice a month and can manage it with ONE dose of Rx meds or just OTC Aleve! If I feel the nausea and confusion of a migraine aura when it starts, I can gently press on the earring for a few seconds and when I release it, the pain slides away too.
I have 4 piercings an a dermal on my face my belly button is pierced an also my daith pierced only one side tho an that was by far the most painful one so far an honestly it helped for a little while but not at all anymore im debating on getting the other side done an the only thing stopping me is cause the first one hurt so bad
It's a little bit painful, just enough to make you cringe, but not cry. Yes it does help. It takes a month to a month and a half to completely heal, before you can change it out for a cute one (earring). You might get a light headache while it's healing, but no migraines and that's it. I have mine pierced. Message me and I will update you on how it's going for me with my daith piercing. 😊
