LOG AN ATTACK IN SECONDS Start a headache log with one tap, or run a live timer for an ongoing attack and end it when the pain lifts. Record pain intensity on a 1 to 10 scale, choose the headache type, and tap the symptoms you feel: aura, nausea, light sensitivity, sound sensitivity, dizziness, blurred vision and more. Add the triggers you suspect, from stress and poor sleep to dehydration, skipped meals, weather, hormones, screen time and certain foods. TRACK MEDICATION AND RELIEF Note exactly which medication you took and whether it gave no relief, some relief or full relief. Over time HeadEase shows you how well your treatments are working, so you and your doctor can make better decisions about acute and preventive care. SEE YOUR PATTERNS The Insights tab turns your headache diary into beautiful, easy-to-read charts: attack frequency over the last weeks, average intensity and duration, your most common triggers and symptoms, a time-of-day pattern, a day-of-week pattern and a calendar heatmap of every headache day.
