शिरोऽभितापेऽनिलजे वातव्याधिविधिं चरेत् । घृतमक्तशिरा रात्रौ पिबेदुष्णपयोऽनुपः ॥ १ ॥

In Śiro'bhitāpa (headache/head affliction) caused by Vāta (anilaje), the treatment advocated for Vātavyādhi (diseases caused by aggravated Vāta) should be adopted (vāatavyādhi-vidhiṃ caret). The head should be anointed (ghṛtamakta-śirāḥ), and ghee should be consumed at night followed by drinking warm milk (pibed uṣṇa-payo'nupaḥ).
