Local tips for headache and migraine in Side

Side combines sandy beaches with ancient ruins and the Temple of Apollo, so sun and walking on stone paths are typical. Dehydration, bright light and skipped meals are the commonest holiday triggers. Drink water, wear sunglasses and rest in a dark room.

Travel guide to Side

Side began as an ancient Greek city on a small peninsula, and after it was abandoned the ruins became known as Eski Adalia, meaning Old Antalya. Tourist tip: walk to the Temple of Apollo at sunset, visit the theatre and the museum, and browse the craft and souvenir shops of the old town. Side is also a handy base for Aspendos and Perge, and its sandy beaches suit swimming and boat trips.

Did you know? Dehydration is one of the commonest and easiest-to-fix holiday headache triggers.

How headache and migraine feels

Understanding headache and migraine

Headaches range from the pressing, band-like pain of tension-type headache to the one-sided throbbing of migraine, which commonly comes with nausea and a dislike of light and sound.

Causes and risk factors

Common triggers: not drinking enough, hot weather, poor sleep, travel, skipped meals, alcohol, stress and certain foods.

How headache and migraine is treated

The physician talks through your symptoms, works out whether it is tension headache or migraine, recommends treatment and rules out warning signs that need prompt investigation. Depending on your case, the doctor may suggest simple painkillers, anti-sickness medicine and, for migraine, specific migraine medicines.
