Even sandwiches and sex can cause headaches!

Even sandwiches and sex can cause headaches!





Do you pop that pill each time you suffer from a headache? Well, you might want to wait and start doing thing differently after reading this piece of study.
According to experts, the most common cause of headache is an appointment with the hairdresser. Having to hold your head back over the basin when taking a headwash is the reason, reported the Daily Mail.
Head pain could also be triggered by other strenuous things like coughing, sneezing, blowing your nose or bending over.
Even jogging on the treadmill can cause blood vessels in the head, neck and scalp to swell, thereby producing an exertion headache within seconds.
Ham sandwiches, which contain tyramine as well as preservatives (nitrates or nitrites,) known to increase blood flow to the brain, can send your head pounding. Even ponytails can trigger the headache pathway, if you pull the hair back too tight.
Among other triggers are coital headaches occasioned while climaxing during sex, and hot showers that alters the body’s blood pressure due to changes in temperature.
