What causes sever Headaches?

I can't figure out What causes Sever headaches... Like migraines, cluster headaches and sometimes it's in the whole front part of the head and some in the back also a few spots in the middle.

It hurts so much i feels like bagging my head in anything, eyes get very sensitive to the light,any light. All Systems of a migraine. Sometime it hurts so bad parts of your body will twitch... yikes..

My boyfriend and i both get it, we have gone to the doctor's a got meds but they don't help. We've taken all kinds of prescriptions for these headaches.

    It really depends on the headache. Headaches that occur because of a secondary factor, a head injury for example, are not the same as a primary headache.

    Migraine is a disease and should be treated as a disease. They don't know why some people have it or how to cure it. There are so many people out there that try to make money from other people suffering from migraines, that many people are misinformed about them.

    If you do have migraines and they are interrupting your life on a regular basis, you will need a preventative - beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, antieleptics, anti depressants, and a whole other host of medications that have been determined to help. The first one you try many not help, or the 20th one you try may not help, but 96% of people find one of these many medications or combination of them help. They may just reduce pain or reduce frequency, but anything is better.

    Have you tried triptans before? These are medications specifically designed for people with migraines. There are 7 of them, 8 if you include the new one that is a combination of one of them and aleve.

    If your doc can't help, see if he can refer you to a neurologist.

    Any number of things can cause headaches, it totally depends on the type of headache. For the ones you are describing though these are some triggers/causes:

    -food allergies/sensitivites- red wine and chocolate are big trouble makers

    -tumor or cyst pressing on certain areas of the brain

    -drug use

    -alcohol use

    -hypertoned muscle in the neck, shoulders, back and head

    For migraines the best thing is usually just to isolate yourself in a dark quiet room. I find heat triggering when I have migraines, so a cool compress might help. Talk with your doctor about possibly causes so you can eliminate or limit them. Find a good massage therapist with experience treating headaches.

It is not a drug, so there are no side efx. The product is Seven+. The active ingredient for headaches is fucoidan, but it is also loaded with other botanicals, Acai, Mangosteen, Gac, Goji, Pomegranate...the list goes on. It is very inexpensive, and guaranteed.

    If medicine do not help, it is very possible you sleep on the wrong place!

    I use to have the same problem 2 years ago.

    Then my friends suggest: Health Detective!

    Before that, I cant even imagine - earth have abnormal bad radiation zones in every living place!
