Understanding Headache

A headache is one of the most common medical complaints worldwide. It’s a broad term that refers to pain in any region of the head. You might feel it on one or both sides, in a specific area, or all over. The pain can be sharp, dull, throbbing, or even come on gradually.

There are two different types of headaches

Primary Headaches

Another medical condition doesn’t cause these. They include

  • Tension headaches are the most common type, often associated with stress or muscle strain.
  • Migraines are more intense and often come with other symptoms like nausea or light sensitivity.
  • Cluster headaches are rare, severe, and come in groups or “clusters.”

Secondary Headaches

These symptoms may indicate another underlying issue, such as an infection, a sinus problem, high blood pressure, or an injury.

If your headache feels different than usual, comes on suddenly, or is accompanied by other serious symptoms (like vision changes or confusion), it’s essential to get it checked out.

What are Migraines?

Migraines are a neurological condition. They usually come with a combination of symptoms that can include:

  • Intense throbbing or pulsing pain (usually on one side of the head)
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Sensitivity to light, sound, and even smells
  • Visual disturbances (called auras) like flashing lights or zigzag lines

They can last anywhere from 4 hours to 3 days, and for many people, these episodes occur regularly. If you’ve ever experienced one, you know just how disruptive and debilitating they can be.

Common Triggers

We’re all different, and so are our triggers. What triggers a headache or migraine for one person may not affect someone else at all. Still, there are a few common causes and patterns to watch for:

  • Stress
  • Hormonal Changes
  • Sleep Patterns
  • Certain Food and Drink
  • Environmental Factors
  • Screen Time & Eye Strain

When to See A Doctor?

Here are a few signs that it’s time to talk to a healthcare provider offering headache or chronic migraine treatment:

  • Your headaches are happening more than once or twice a week
  • The pain is severe or disabling
  • You’re taking medication more than a couple of times per week
