The tension headache is the most common type of headache. This type of headache may be mild to moderate in pain. Some may describe it as having a tight rubber band compressing your head. Tension headaches usually last anywhere between 1 to 6 hours. If you experience prolonged headaches, please seek professional help.
Cluster headaches have a specific pattern of attack and type of pain. With this type of headache, you may feel pain localized pain in one part of your head which seems to radiate and migrate toward a common central point each time. The attacks may occur as frequently as several times a day to several times an hour.
A migraine generally affects one side of the head. You may feel a pulsing sensation or severe throbbing. Some may experience extreme sensitivity to light and/or sound. In some cases, it may be accompanied by nausea or vomiting. Occasionally, some may experience a visual disturbance such as flashes of light, tunnel vision or blind spots. Rarely, you may experience tingling on one side of your body such as on the side of your face, or on one arm or leg. Regardless, migraine headaches are overwhelmingly painful without the additional symptoms that accompany them.
It is important to identify any triggers and causes leading to the headaches. One recommendation is to keep a food diary. By identifying and tracking what foods are consumed and not consumed, a pattern or trigger may be identified. Oftentimes, the cause of a recurring headache may be due to consuming inadequate enzymes, minerals, oxygen or water. Other times, headaches may be cause by poor nutrition or sleep habits. Some headaches may even be a side effect of medications.
One recommended remedy for pain relief is to utilize a hot/cold compress. Try applying the compress to the back of the neck or directly to the head where the pain is most intense.
If you are experiencing persistent, prolonged and intense headaches, seek professional help. This may be a sign of underlying issues within the body.
