You can also take co-codimol if you need something stronger than paracetamol. I used to find that taking painkillers and lying in a hot bath relaxing with my head under the water, (with your nose out so you can breath obviously) really helped me!xx

I also balanced a hot water bottle on my head while lying down. It really helped xx
