How often do you get headaches? If you are a headache sufferer, you likely understand how much headaches can ruin your livelihood. A select group of people are lucky enough to rarely get headaches and others are plagued by migraines and chronic neck pain every day of their lives. There are numerous types of common headaches people regularly experience.
Tension headaches are a very common type Americans experience. Many people describe a tension headache as stabbing, dull pain with throbbing pain and sometimes tension behind the eyes. Stabbing pain is also listed when the condition is not treated. Neck pain is often involved and goes hand in hand with tension aches. As a kirkland chiropractor, I treat my people with neck pain and headaches. Chiropractic in Kirkland is a good choice for someone with neck tension.
The duration for a tension headache can vary from 30 minutes to days. Most often an hour is the life. Trigger points are often found surrounding the head, neck, shoulders and chest. Also, atlas angle deficiency can contribute to chronic pain.
Migraine headaches are classically described as pounding, intense, severe pain often coupled with light sensitivity. They are often experienced with nausea as well. These migraine headaches can last from as little as a few hours to as long as a few days. Many of those who suffer from migraine headaches experience visual symptoms called an “aura” just prior to an attack. Migraines are debilitating and have been found to be linked to depression. Getting the proper diagnosis is a crucial step in battling your aching head.
Chiropractic care has been scientifically proven in many studies to alleviate headaches and more importantly, it’s been shown to prevent further headaches.
