Do you know what causes headache and migraine
1.
2. Most people experience headaches from
time to time and say they know how to
manage it even though there heads are all
over the place as many people don’t follow
the recommended analgesic dose.
Research shows that 60 percent of headache
sufferers never consult as they believe that
nothing can be done to help them.
Headaches can vary in duration, cause
and severity. Many common headaches can
be dealt with over the counter products.
3. Tension-Type Headaches
Tension type headaches are usually described as a
tight band around the head (on both sides).
A tension headache can last from 30 minutes to
several days. Its usually caused by a manifestation
of stress, tiredness (fatigue) alcohol drink-like
hangover or a sudden change in lifestyle.
OTC pain killers are commonly used to treat acute
tension-type headaches and removing the
underlying problem which is the muscle tension. Its
important to look at posture as muscle tension in the
neck could cause headache.
4. Migraine
Migraine is more than just a headache. Symptoms
include throbbing headaches allied with
sensitivity to light and noise, nausea, vomiting
and lethargy.
They tend to last from four hours to about three
days and most people do not feel the symptoms
between the attacks. People with migraine have a
nervous system that is particularly sensitive to
change, so genetics seems to play a role in
susceptibility. A change could be sudden change
in blood glucose levels or a sudden change in
sleep pattern this could trigger a migraine.
Migraines can be treated with NSAID such as
ibuprofen or with paracetamol. If that doesn’t
work they can try sumatriptan and other stronger
types of treatments after being given a
prescription from your local doctor.
5. Hangover Headaches
These have similar symptoms to Migraines as it’s a
result of a sudden change in water levels in the
body (dehydration) and blood sugar changes.
A Hangover can last for a few hours.
You can reduce the chances of getting them by
drinking loads of water before, during and after
alcohol consumption and, another way is eating
before and while drinking as this slows down the
absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream.
6. Eye Strain Headaches
Focusing or reading on digital devices like
laptops, tablets, smart phones or games consoles
for too long can strain the eye muscles, leading to
headaches, dry, sore or irritated eyes and blurred
or double vision. The headaches usually start
around the eyes and then spread to the forehead
and temples.
Having an eye test, wearing glasses or contact
lenses if necessary, and adjusting workstation
could prevent it from happening in the first place.
But if a headache occurs simple analgesics should
relieve the pain
Don’t forget to take regular screen breaks!
7. Sinus Headache
This a headache that is located over the sinuses in
their forehead and across the nose and
cheekbones. Sinus headaches usually occur after a
cold or allergy and get worse as the costumer
makes sudden moves or bends over. Most cases of
sinusitis are viral and don’t respond to antibiotics.
But, are usually solved by using simple
decongestants and anti-inflammatory analgesics.
8. Viral Headaches
Headaches will often go along with viral
infections alongside nasal congestion, fever and
fatigue. A headache with a very high temperature
could be meningitis, especially if it also causes a
stiff neck, vomiting, drowsiness, sensitivity to
light and/or a rash. Customers with any
combination for these symptoms should seek
immediate medical care.
Acupuncture and cranial osteopathy can bring
some relief to post-meningitis headaches.
9. Cluster Headaches
Cluster headaches affect one in ever 1,000 people
in the UK. The pain is almost always on one side
of the head and may be associated with symptoms
like watery eyes from both or one eye, nasal
congestion, facial sweating and drooping eyelids.
The pain is quite severe usually starts at night one
to two hours after the patient has gone to sleep
waking them up and leaving them wanting to
bang there head against the wall. The most
common cause is alcohol or strong smelling
substances like petrol.
Ordinary painkillers usually do not solve cluster
headaches so must be referred to a GP where they
are offered various treatments depending on how
severe it is like in acute situations 100% oxygen
with an on demand valve so patient can control
dosage, or nueromodular devices.
