Is there a specific supplication or action to alleviate severe pain in the front of the head?
Illness and patience with it expiate sins and increase faith, as reported from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "No Muslim is afflicted with fatigue or illness... but Allah expiates some of his sins thereby."
As for the natural remedies recommended by Islam, they include: honey, Indian costus, cupping (hijama), and black seed.
Regarding the prophetic supplications (du'as) recommended for healing the sick, they include placing the hand on the site of pain and saying: "In the name of Allah" three times, then seven times: "I seek refuge in Allah and His power from the evil of what I find and what I fear," and saying: "Remove the harm, O Lord of mankind, and heal, You are the Healer. There is no healing except Your healing, a healing that leaves no sickness." It is also recommended to recite Al-Fatihah, Al-Mu'awwidhat (Surahs Al-Falaq and An-Nas), and the rest of the Qur'an.
