Sinus and Tension Headaches

June 4th, 2009 · No Comments

Sinus Headache

Sinus problems, too, give rise to headaches. The sinuses are small spaces in the facial bones just below the facial skin. The spaces are concentrated in the nasal region, temples and around the eyes. Sometimes, due to infection, these spaces get inflamed with mucus and infected as well.

This leads to the headache that is the result of sinusitis. There are many causes for sinusitis which are allergy, a deviated nasal septum, and severe cold, enlarged parts in side the nose, and acute ongoing infection.

Tension Headache

Tension headaches are also common in many people. Stress and anxiety are causes for tension headaches. The moment such a person gets tense about something, the person develops a tension headache. Insufficient sleep, anxiety, problems, and worries give rise to the tension headache.

Now whatever is the cause or whatever be the nature of the headache, most headaches are preventable. There is no need to endure the pain when you really have an option. Starting in the next post I will list a number of ways to prevent headaches.
