Handling your headache.
It is estimated that 45 million Americans suffer from severe recurring attacks of migraine and tension headaches. Daily use of analgesics, aspirin, and ibuprofen can create a rebound effect thereby causing more headaches. Once the medication wears off, the headache often returns prompting the person to take more medication therefore creating the cycle of pain-pills; more pain and more pills.
It is not uncommon for a person to experience two to three headaches per year. If you experience headaches more frequently than this, it is probable that you are suffering from nerve irritation in your neck. Other causes of headaches may include trauma (such as whiplash injuries), TMJ syndrome (jaw problems), allergies and/or hormonal imbalances.
