Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the administration and dosage of bupivacaine for sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) nerve block. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

* Does a high dose (3ml) give more relief than a low dose (1ml)?
* Does bilateral administration give more relief than unilateral? Participants with headaches will be asked to lie down and have SPG block performed.

Researchers will compare dosage and administration to see how symptoms are reduced.
