HEADACHE

Uncategorized
A headache is defined as pain in any region of the head. It can occur on one or both sides, be isolated to a certain location, radiate across the head from one point, or have a vise-like quality. It may appear as a sharp pain, a throbbing sensation, or a dull ache. Headaches can also be symptoms of other underlying health conditions, so persistent or severe headaches should be evaluated by a healthcare professional.

  1. Migraine Headaches – Pulsating pain, often one-sided, with nausea and sensitivity to light and sound.
    • Neurovascular Changes: Involves vasodilation of blood vessels and release of inflammatory substances around nerves and blood vessels in the brain.
    • Central Nervous System Activation: Activation of the trigeminal nerve leading to the release of neuropeptides, causing inflammation and pain.
    • Genetic Factors: Often runs in families, indicating a hereditary component.
  2. Cluster Headaches – Intense, burning pain around one eye, occurring in cycles.
    • Hypothalamic Activation: The hypothalamus may play a key role, affecting the body’s biological clock.
    • Trigeminal Nerve Activation: Similar to migraines, but with more intense and localized pain.
  3. Tension Headaches – Band-like tightness around the forehead, stress-related.
    • Muscle Contraction: Prolonged muscle tension in the neck, scalp, and face due to stress or poor posture.
    • Neurotransmitter Imbalance: Alterations in serotonin and other neurotransmitters affecting pain perception.
  4. Sinus Headaches – Pressure and pain in the face, associated with sinus congestion.
    • Sinus Inflammation: Inflammation or infection in the sinus cavities leading to pressure and pain.
    • Obstructed Sinus Drainage: Blocked sinus drainage can increase pressure within the sinuses.
  5. Hormonal Headaches – Linked to menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or menopause.
  6. Cervicogenic Headaches – Cervical Spine Issues: Pain originating from the neck, often due to arthritis, disc problems, or muscle strain, which radiates to the head.
  7. Exertional Headaches – Increased Blood Flow: Physical exertion increases blood flow to the brain, which may lead to pressure and pain.
  8. Rebound Headaches – Due to overuse of pain medications, leading to a cycle of headache relief and recurrence, altering pain pathways.
