Headaches & Migraine Treatments

Migraines and other types of headaches can be extremely painful for those who suffer from them on a regular basis.

Headaches can range from mild to severe pain and can last anywhere from 30 minutes to a week. The most common headache is a tension headache, caused by muscle strain, stress and anxiety. Other types include cluster headaches and sinus headaches.

Migraines on the other hand tend to be more extreme than headaches and result in more symptoms than just head pain. These can include nausea, vomiting, increased sensitivity to light and sound, seeing spots or flashing lights, and even temporary vision loss. The throbbing pain associated with migraines will often make performing daily tasks difficult.

Depending on the cause of a migraine, there are certain preventative measures that can be taken to avoid an attack. Changing your diet to cut out foods known to cause headaches such as alcohol and caffeine is one way to do this. Sufferers can also take steps to reduce stress in order to lower their chances of getting certain types of migraines or headaches.

Migraine triggers can vary greatly depending on the person. They range from allergies, anxiety, and irregular sleeping patterns to low blood sugar, smoking and dehydration.
