#1709 – Thumb

This is a fantasy of mine. Whenever I have headaches I want to be able to reach in there and pull out the bad parts. Everything would be so much better if I could just pop out my eyeballs and let everything cool down for a bit.

Drink coffee and/or water when you have a headache.
It wont cure it but it will lessen the symptoms.
This too is a malady from which I suffer… I almost broke my own nose pinching the bridge. =
Somehow, in my imagination, this has to do with too much pressure in the skull and if I just cut it open, the pressure would dissipate 🙂
Same. When I was a kid, I would trace my finger across my forehead and imagine that it was a knife.
That’s also the universal sign for, “OH MY GOD! Where did my eye go!?!?!?”
That looks slightly uncomfortable, I think… But as long as it makes Biff feel better, then it’s OK I guess. Rubbing the inside of your own head/eye socket using your thumb can’t be *that* bad compared to some of the other things that have happened to Biff!
If the headache is due to sinus pressure, counter-pressure can feel great.
Reaching in and pulling out the bad parts seems like a good idea, until you remove the wrong part by mistake and forget happiness and math.
this is too close to reality to be funny, in fact at first I couldn’t tell that his thumb was actually penetrating through skin, and I thought he was just putting his fist on his forehead, which actually can help a lot, depending on the kind of headache… migraines prolly not so much
Sinus headache; heels of hands on both cheeks, and press. If it’s upper sinuses, same on the forehead. Then I go look for the (plain old, drowsy-kind) antihistamine, cheap house-brand chlorpheneramine maleate. Help dry up the blockage, encourage me to stay in (or go back to) bed!
