A headache is a general term for pain in part or the entire head. Pain at the border between the back of the head and the neck and behind the eyes are also treated as headaches.
A headache is the name of a symptom, just like a fever or stomachache, but when headache attacks occur chronically and repeatedly, it is treated as a medical condition and is called “headache syndrome.”
Many people suffer from headaches on a daily basis, and are known as “headache sufferers.” It is important to understand the conditions that make headaches more likely to occur and how to suppress the pain, and to have your own countermeasures. On the other hand, a strong headache that is different from usual may be a sign of a worrying illness. First, let’s learn about the mechanism and causes of headaches, and how to distinguish them.
Data shows that approximately 10% of first-time outpatient patients complain of headaches as their main complaint.
One in three to four Japanese people (approximately 30 million people) are said to suffer from headaches, of which 22 million suffer from tension headaches, 8.4 million from migraines, and 10,000 from cluster headaches.
Furthermore, headaches caused by subarachnoid hemorrhage and other conditions occur in approximately 10,000 to 30,000 people each year.
It is also said that at least 40% of people worldwide experience headaches that interfere with their daily life.
Women are more likely to complain of headache symptoms than men, with 60% of tension headaches and 80% of migraines occurring in women.
One of the headaches that women often complain of is that associated with PMS (premenstrual syndrome). This is thought to be because estrogen decreases in the blood during menstruation, which has some effect on serotonin, making women more susceptible to migraines.
Most of the headaches we experience are “primary headaches” that have no other underlying cause. If you suffer from headaches often, you may have the feeling that “Oh, this is the same headache as before” when it is triggered by stress, lifestyle habits, or posture.
On the other hand, headaches caused by illness or other factors are called “secondary headaches.” Diseases that are particularly dangerous if overlooked, and that require proper treatment by a doctor, include subarachnoid hemorrhage, brain tumors, chronic subdural hemorrhage, hypertensive encephalopathy, sinusitis, and depression.
Primary headaches can be broadly divided into three types: migraines, tension headaches, and cluster headaches, and each type has different triggers and treatments. It is important to understand which type of headache you have and take appropriate measures.
Chronic headaches, which affect approximately one-third of Japanese people, can be broadly classified into three types.
Tension-type headache
Squeezing pain
Migraine
Throbbing pain
Cluster headaches
Intense pain
It is a tension headache to be said that there is the most it in a primary headache.
A feeling of sluggishness and a feeling of pressure or a tightened pain gradually occurs mainly on the back of the head, the temple, a sum and follows for a while. There is the person becoming sensitive to either light or sound, but nausea and vomiting do not occur like a migraine headache, and a pain may not turn worse when I moved a body. The strength of the pain is mild to moderate, and a trouble seems to be rarely reflected on everyday life.
As for the main cause, it is decided to get the blood circulation worse by a head, a neck, the strain of the muscle of the shoulder, but it is thought that neurologic strain such as the stress may trigger it.
In addition, there is the mixed type that the person with the tension headache has a migraine headache.
The following thing is considered as a cause to cause this headache.
A migraine headache is a throb and a headache to ache so that the one side (or both sides) of the head beats.
It may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting and has a symptom such as becoming sensitive to light, a sound. The pain is strong and continues it for approximately 4-72 hours if I do not cure, and what turn worse when I move a body and take a bath features it. The cause has not become clear yet, but some kind of stimulation leads to the stimulation of the trigeminal nerve (nerve appearing from brain directly), and it is thought that expansion and inflammation of the blood vessel occur for a chain reaction more.
A harbinger such as getting dizzy that the very front twinkles may appear before a migraine headache is caused. It is frequent in a woman of the 20-40 years old and it often develops and is seen in menstruation and before and after. During the pregnancy, there are a lot of people that a migraine headache is reduced temporarily, but half of people recur after the delivery in around one month.
Let’s receive the medical treatment of the specialist recently as there is medicine working in an ingredient for the medical care well. But a careful judgment is necessary as there is the risk to mistake serious diseases such as the subarachnoid hemorrhage for a migraine headache.
The following thing is considered as a cause to cause this headache.
A headache appears in the one side of the head and says the headache that abnormality appears to eyes and a nose, the ear of the side same as it with “cluster headache”.
The cause is not elucidated exactly, but is said to be related to the place called the hypothalamus of the brain.
One accompanied by a symptom such as the intense pain that it hits and hangs it in (previous head – both sides of the head part) of the temple and hyperemia, tears, mucus, the stuffy nose of eyes of the aching, the descent of eyelids from all around of eyes of right and left either features cluster headaches, and it aches, and the attack is repeated 2 to 8 times a day and, the interval for approximately from several days to three months, I concentrate on it and continue (the frequent occurrence period). When (iterative cluster headaches) and the frequent occurrence period always continues when the frequent occurrence period comes over again, after the time when a headache is not caused, there is (chronic cluster headaches), too.
The onset age tended to be many to a man at 20-40 years old, but in late years the gender gap tends to gradually decrease. Opinions to occur by a trigeminal activity to run towards an opinion, eyes and upper jaw, lower jaw to have congestion and inflammation for the arterial expansion of the depths of eyes as the mechanism that a pain happens, and to be connected for a headache increasing excessively are thought about.
It often takes place during sleep and may wake up for an acute pain. The following thing is considered as a cause to cause this headache.
Symptomatic treatments such as the medical therapy are used for the treatment of the headache basically.
However, I am used to medicine, and a body becomes hard to work by using these drugs regularly for a long term, and attention is necessary to have possibilities to have a symptom to fall into a vicious circle to “drink → medicine which an effect of the medicine runs out” of, and to be said to be “a drug abuse headache”. In addition, it becomes a cause to damage the stomach to take alcoholic drinks during headache therapeutic drug remedy and may wake up an evil such as changing into a toxic high material depending on a drug in the body.
When there is the disease of the brain, the treatment to remove the cause is provided.
Tonic headache…An anti-inflammation pain-killer (painkiller) and Chinese medicine, muscle relaxant
Migraine headache…In exclusive medicine, the pain-killer (at the time of an attack) prevention (at the time of frequent occurrence) these days, there are injection medicine and the exclusive medicine which I can give by a method such as nasal drops.
Cluster headache…The injection which lets the oxygen inhalation (at the time of an attack) blood vessel of around 15 minutes shrink…
The headache cannot do the improvement from the origin only by massage to develop from various factors. It does the muscle of a neck and the shoulder by exercise flexibly, and it is important to maintain a right posture so that a burden does not suffer from strengthening it and a neck shoulder. In addition, it can lead to symptom aggravation when I get a wrong early measures. The headache has to check a physical mental stress, meal, lifestyle finely only for a pain.
I analyze the autonomic nerve to judge a headache definitely at our hospital. When the balance of sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve of the autonomic nerve collapses, various symptoms are caused, and a nerve does not function normally. I take measures against the cause with precise approach by a diagnosis result.
The rear line core is the exercise of body aid to fix a pelvis and the thoracic distortion to constitute the center (core). When “distortion” (asymmetric) occurs to a pelvis, a thorax, it may adversely affect not only the whole backbone but also a shoulder and a neck, the exercise of hip joint function.
Using a three-dimensional change wave of ES-530, I can expect the activation of the cell. It is the facial care by the three-dimensional change wave that three-dimensional stimulation is available for. I put three electrodes on the face and give the skin surface, muscle stimulation by letting a middle cycle intersect three-dimensionally. It is that I can stimulate it to the deep part where I do not touch by a hand (finger) while moving a facial striated muscle (the muscle which I usually use, the muscle which I do not use) by machine, and promoting the activation from the internal deep part to the surface cell.
Let alone work and a private, I can spend the coming long life with better directionality by solving various factors one by one carefully
We tell you about stretch and exercises to be able to perform at home because the symptom due to the headache goes to the cancellation. Besides, a meal, nourishment instruction, posture instruction, exercise in the everyday life instructs it and acts for prevention of recurrence. Let alone where a headache symptom is given to for the first time, please receive treatment of our hospital including troubled with a headache for a long time, the which becomes hard to appear for a few days even if treated by all means so far.
I relax the hyperstrain of the line and improve circulation
Around the part of the pain, I operate on the reactions point such as muscle tonus, pressure pain, the induration of the head and the neck shoulder region.
[prescription example]Rush of blood to the head, wind pond, shoulder
In coordination with autonomic nervous system, stability of the vasomotion
I operate on the reactions point such as pressure pain or the integrity on the cranial blood vessel.
[prescription example] Rush of blood to the head, positive white
※Because the symptom exacerbation by the bloodstream promotion is possible about a migraine headache and the cluster headache, I perform the surgical operation to induce bloodstream to the other place in parallel.
For the Oriental medicine, it is thought that a headache occurs by a wound (including disorder and poor circulation of the internal balance of the body) in malarial air ② of the feeling out of ①. I investigate the Oriental medicine-like cause in addition to a Western mind such as the above and cure.
The malaise (※ 1) by physical strain by vaccination by the new coronavirus fashion and the mask wearing increasing increases.
(※ 1) a medical examination and a state to appeal for various symptoms without being able to identify a clear disease even if is examined.
At the time of mask wearing, the muscle tonus of “the sternocleidomastoid muscle” always becomes in particular higher by suffering from mouth respiration. When this muscle is tense, fatigue piles up and wakes up the blood circulation delinquent. It becomes the cause that fatigue materials collect and produce a pain and numbness when a disorder occurs for bloodstream circulation. In addition, the function of parasympathetic nerve worsens and influences the unbalance of the autonomic nerve.
When sternocleidomastoid muscle tonus always becomes higher, a carotid strangulation disorder to run a bottom occurs.
When a carotid strangulation disorder occurs, smoothness of the bloodstream sent to the cerebrum and an organ of hearing disappears.
In the domains various as for the brain each part thin; is classified, and take different functions each. For example, the cerebral cortex by a difference of the cell construction in 52 domains thin; is classified. There is such a function local existence in all domains of the central nerve and, in the spinal cord, has somatotopic organization having the somatic sensation and exercise of hand and foot function for each sound articulation. When the oxygen supply to brain decreases, the nourishment to each cell is delayed, and functional decline can be caused.
At our hospital, I program an echo, a supersonic wave medical care device, an empty hand, rehabilitation exercises and wrestle for improvement of the dizziness of the.
I inspect it using 2D echo (sonography). The 2D echo is superior in the observation of the soft tissues such as muscle, a tendon, the ligament.
When it is caused by the soft tissues such as a trigger point, muscular fiber, ligament, the tendon that the cause of the pain not to be reflected in X-rays and the CT that is observation is impossible, this 2D echo (sonography) is effective at all.
To a neck, muscle and a nerve are complicated complicatedly, and big blood vessel sending nourishment to the brain there goes. I aim at the expansion of the movable range and the improvement of the flexibility by performing the breathing method and posture correction. I provide the counseling that I matched with each one, a customized surgical operation, a made-to-order surgical operation to aim at the early improvement.
I irradiate a supersonic wave in either non-warm temperature effect or warm temperature effect in pinpoint.Supersonic wave → Bloodstream increase of spinal cord artery by the deep part heat and the artery grass.
Furthermore, using a high frequency treatment container, supersonic wave treatment device combination physiotherapy apparatus (ass Tron) by a high frequency of the strain of the muscle relax it, and can expect an effect to restrain pain transmission.
When I perform self-care at home, it is important that I follow the following instructions.
It is shallow, and the body that the balance was tense as well as the problem of muscle and the bone does breathing and lowers the metabolism of the whole body and is said to be it when it causes malaise and the intractable disease. I instruct exercises easily possible at home well.
