Chronic tension headaches are a serious ailment that can detract from enjoyment of daily life. Daily activities can be painfully interrupted by the sudden occurence of a tension headache. Chronic tension headaches are known to cause depression in some. It is important that chronic tension headaches be treated as soon as possible. Fortunately, the medical community is very experienced with the problem of chronic tension headache, and has several avenues of treatment available for sufferers. In fact, headaches are actually divided into three individual categories.

 

The majority of headaches suffered are put into what is known as the primary category. A primary headache is frequently brought on by emotional or physical stress, and is the most common form of headache by far. Primary headaches are almost never life threatening, but they can bring serious pain with them. This pain can hamper everyday enjoyment of life, making even basic functioning difficult. Although the actual causes of chronic tension headache are still unknown, it is widely held that the symptoms can be traced to a tightening of muscles around the skull. This tightening can be initially identified as a band like feeling just above the eyes that gradually grows into a painful sensation.

 

Cluster and secondary headaches are a far rarer form of headache that occurs to small portion of the population. To treat this kind of headache, the attention of a specialist is most likely required. Cluster headaches are easily identifiable by the amount of pain they cause. Patients frequently describe cluster headaches as like having an icepick driven into the eye. Treatment includes powerful sedatives and pain medications. Secondary headaches usually indicate some other issue that is at work.

 

Chronic tension headaches should be approached from a stress management point of view. Physical and emotional stress are both known to trigger chronic tension headache. Circumstances that trigger significant emotional stress can easily lead to chronic tension headaches. Prolonged physical stress is another potential cause of chronic tension headaches. Steps to manage both kinds of stress are necessary to bring the problem under control. If these steps do not succeed, then further treatment with more powerful pain medications may be necessary. Chronic tension headaches that do not abate should be a signal to see a doctor.

headaches
Ashish Jain asked:


It is simply impossible to resist headache, especially a series of headache. Whenever you get a sudden headache, you ask a question to yourself. What did you do…a day before the headache, a few hours before the headache? What did you eat? Did you do something other than your routine? If you are able to answer these questions honestly, you will be able to find the exact reason for your headache.

Now this is a wise way of tackling headache by the adults. What about headaches, especially chronic headaches in children? Chronic headache are due to the living style and diet habits. This may not be the sole reason, but it is definitely one of the important reasons.

My doctor friend cracks a joke on his patients who come to him with headache complaints: “You have a headache. That proves, you have a head” Well, the joke part of it helps reduce the intensity of headache to some extent.

Headache has nothing to do with the brain; it indeed concerns head only. The origin of headache is in the membranes surrounding the brain. It could as well be in the muscles and blood vessels beneath the scalp.

A child will make specific complaint about headache. Younger children will simply cry not knowing the origin of pain, and hence the treatment becomes difficult. You may have to ask several questions to the child before you come to a conclusion that the child has a headache. Older children are able to pinpoint the location of the headache, so that suitable treatment can be given to them.

Don’t take grim view of the headache among the children. Sometimes, it may be due to very simple reasons: not drinking enough water during summer, a dingy and smoky room, sudden pressure of extra homework, watching television for hours together, too much work on the computer, not taking right food at the right time or late night heavy meals. Such types of headaches require simple type of treatment and proper rest.

If the headache persists for more than a day, there could be multiple causes for it. Take the temperature. Does the child have a stuffy or runny nose? Are there indications of sinusitis? Does he compliant of vomiting sensation? Does the headache occur in one part of the head only? If it is so, better consult your family doctor.

Don’t make, over the counter medications a habit, whenever your child has a headache. Most of the headaches leave quietly, without making any noise. Allow it to go, without making any noise.

headache cures
dymondtears asked:


I have really bad headaches and I’m not sure if they’re migraines (I know, I need to go to a doctor) but with my schedule I really can’t get there. Plus, medicine is expensive. Does anyone know any quick, easy and cheap ways to cure headaches. What about great ways to get rid of stress?
I understand that I’m a psych major, but its much more difficult to apply what your learn to yourself then it is to actually tell people how to do it. Besides, we don’t learn how to control stress, we learn what causes and what to tell people about it. At least here thats what we learn!
