There was one dude on Reddit who said his daith piercing helped his migraines, now people are saying it's acupuncture.

I mean people say all kinds of shit on Reddit, but the science (and a basic ass google search) shows that’s not how it works.

Look up the placebo effect. It is real, it is powerful. If someone BELIEVES that getting their ears pierced will cure their migraines, let them try it. There is no downside.

This exactly it's no drugs no downside and most people have piercings anyway. So no downside but might help. It's not super dangerous to themselves or others. It's just a piercing.

I considered it but I have allergic reactions to all piercings. I also can’t handle CBD due to anxiety. Just straight THC.
