It would be a very rare individual indeed who has never suffered a
headache at some time in their life so it follows that almost all of us are
familiar with the agony of suffering a headache. Sometimes a headache
can be relatively mild, something that barely disturbs the normal course
of the day whereas at other times, the worst headaches can be totally
disabling.
For some people, their headache problem is considerably worse than
this, as they suffer an extreme form of headaches known as migraine or
even the far lesser known cluster (or ‘suicide’) headaches. Migraine
headaches are usually characterized by several factors in combination
whereas cluster headaches are often described as the worse pain
imaginable by sufferers.
There is no doubt whatsoever that for someone who is a regular or
chronic headache sufferer, the pain goes considerably further than
simply being a little uncomfortable.
In this report, you’re going to read of many different ways of treating
headaches entirely naturally, as well as some ideas for isolating what
causes you to suffer headaches when you do so.
We will also consider many of the more common medical treatments
that are used to treat headaches and migraine, whilst also analyzing the
side-effects of many of these treatment methods, something which
might dissuade you from grabbing the pill bottle quite so quickly the
next time your head is a little bit sore!
And whilst there is no doubt that most people are more familiar with
having a headache than they would like to be, it may come as a
surprise to know that there are many different types of headaches.
There are several different systems of headache classification as well.
However, it is now generally agreed that the most useful or widely
accepted system of classifying headaches is that used by the
International Headache Society, so it is with the IHS system of
headache classification that we will begin.
