Cheap Wine contains a certain chemical that is known to induce / increase migraines, if you drink wine a lot, make sure you get a “good” brand.
Migraine pains are caused by a reduced amount of oxygen getting to the brain - due to vascular restrictions / stress. It's often given down by genetics.
If its frequent and heavy you should see a doctor, as aside plain migraine, it could obviously be a tumor.
If you frequently suffer from migraines, a “good” brand wine, (no more than 1-2 glasses a day) will thin your blood and allow more blood to reach even the tinner paths in your brain.
Also, avoid cheap wine, be relaxed, get plenty of fresh air, don't get exited,
dont eat too much salt (salt thickens the blood, alcohol thins it), avoid chocolate (dont ask why).
Don't drink too much beer/wine/whatever (alcohol dehydrates the brain, and worsens headaches)
Paracetamol is actually a “bad” thing to use, as it thickens the blood.
You should use a liquid painkiler that doesn't thicken blood.
