To correctly treat the causes and symptoms of your headaches, it’s important to establish what type of headache you are experiencing. Four common types of headaches include:
- Tension headaches
- Cluster headaches
- Migraine headaches
- Sinus headaches
Tension Headaches
These are the most common type of headache, and are often due to stress, anger, anxiety, or fatigue. Tension headaches feel like a constant ache around the back, head, neck, or temples.
Cluster Headaches
Cluster headaches occur in groups or cycles, and sometimes come with watery eyes or nasal congestion. This type generally affects men more than women, and can cause moderate to severe in pain.
Migraine Headaches
Migraines often begin as a dull ache and gradually increase in pain, usually accompanied by a combination of nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and noise.
Sinus Headaches
When sinus cavities become inflamed due to an infection, those affected may experience a headache due to pressure in the cheekbones, forehead, and nose.
