Cluster Headaches (Seasonal headaches)

I call it groups headaches or seasonal headaches. The pain typically radiates from behind the eyes to the temples, nose, jaw, chin, or even teeth. For many ppl, cluster headaches are seasonal occurrences (thats why I call it seasonal headaches), appearing in the spring, the fall or both. Stress or psychological factors are not usually the culprits behind cluster headaches. Most of the victim are male than females. (male 6 times more than females) Nausea and vomiting rarely accompany a cluster headaches. Dont appear to be hereditary. Happens on heavy smokers.

Exertion Headaches (Emotions headaches)

Sometimes, physical exertion can trigger a headaches, but strenuous sports arent the only perpetrators. Sexual Intercourse, a coughing spell, laughing, or lifting heavy loads also can bring on exertion headaches. This is because the blood vessels to dilate and send extra blood to head, which can result in sharp throbbing head pain. Dun worry, theyre usually not serious. I do get exertion headaches all the times. The best way to cure it naturally is to SLEEP!!! Its better than have a panadol but if it usually happens, please see a doctor before u ignore it because it might be a head injury. Cause of Vascular Headaches I had posted it on the previous post bout this. Dou remember about the over leak of plasma to the surrounding cells??? This can be triggered by alcohol, foods, exercise, cigarette smoke and chemical imbalance, especially that involve neurotransmitter serotonin which is a brain protein that helps regulate sleeps, mood, pain signal, diameter of blood and hunger. Too much of this serotonin, is that the migraine suffer feels pain even more keenly. (if ur females, then not surprise that u always suffer this kinda attack all the time.
