Frequently Asked Questions About Southern Pain and Spine: Athens
What’s the difference between a headache vs migraine?
A migraine is a type of headache. However, headaches and migraines are different and may require different approaches for pain management.
Headaches include any pain condition that affects the head. Tension headaches are the most common type of headache and cause mild to moderate pain. Cluster headaches cause severe stabbing pain behind one eye. The pain occurs in clusters, coming and going over days, weeks, or months.
Migraines cause head pain. However, these types of headaches also have other symptoms, such as sensitivity to light or nausea. Migraines may also cause symptoms before and after the head pain.
What causes headaches and migraines?
There are many potential causes of chronic abdominal pain, including (but not limited to):
Musculoskeletal problems like neck strain or injury
Stress or anxiety
Hormone changes
Certain smells or odors
Bright lights
Loud noises
Changes in sleep patterns
Skipping meals or fasting
Alcohol use
Caffeine withdrawal
Migraines, on the other hand, are thought to be caused by changes in the brainstem and its interaction with pain pathways. These changes can be triggered by:
Hormonal changes
Stress
Certain foods or drinks
Changes in sleep patterns
Bright lights
Strong smells
Weather changes
