Laugh So as to Mask the Pain

Frankly, that's pretty much it except for the teary and/or red eyes.  And, nothing can touch it.  Since it's sort of in the sinus-y area, you can take sinus "stuff" but that doesn't help.

All the years I was working I rarely had headaches. As soon as I retired my occasional migraines became a regular thing. I even have painless ones that wreck my vision for days. No rhyme. No reason. Just wasted time in what should be the best years of my life.
