Why do I get headaches?

Headaches are among most common health complaints worldwide with almost every person has experience some form of headaches. In America, about 1 in every six people (approximately 45 million people) suffers from chronic headaches yearly. Chronic headaches only refer to those recurrent throbbing pains in your head that last for a long time.

There are various nerves and muscles in the head, when one of them becomes irritated, the nerve endings picks up on the pain. You have a headache when you sense pain in the nerves and muscles of the head and neck and the meninges. Meninges are those membranes that cover and protect your brain and the spinal cord.

Types of headaches

Headaches come in different forms and may be felt in different areas of the head, hence we classify them broadly as primary and secondary headaches:

Primary headaches

Primary headaches have nothing to do with underlying medical conditions, and may include:

• Cluster headaches
• Tension headaches
• Migraine headaches

Secondary headaches

Secondary headaches are associated with medical conditions like dental disorders, hypoglycemia, fever and infections. When, for instance, you're suffering from an ear or a sinus infection the nerve endings of the inner ear become inflamed, causing a headache. These nerve endings connect to the sensitive parts of the head such as the brain.

Secondary headaches may also result from increased pressure in the skull or sinuses (sinus headaches), head injury as well as tumors. When you treat the underlying cause of you headaches, your secondary problems (headaches) will probably disappear by itself. You might have noticed that after treating your nasal polyps with SinusWars13 the underlying headache disappeared unconsciously.
