Effects of Stress: Migraine, Headache and Allergies

 Difference between tension headache and migraine?

• Tension headache is dull aching, feels like a tight band or pressure around the head, whereas the pain of migraine is sharp and throbbing.

• Tension headache gets relieved by sleep, but migraine can come up at any time. It can wake someone up in the night.

• Migraine is associated with nausea and vomiting but tension headache is not.

 

Which one causes problem, is it the intensity or the duration of stressful periods?

• Both! If someone goes through a very intense pressure for a short time, it can lead to stress. On the other hand, a situation that doesn’t appear too intense if prolonged, not allowing any breathing space can constitute a stress agent.

Is there any relationship between stress and allergies?

• Yes! Stress can trigger allergic reactions in people who are predisposed to such reactions, and allergy can cause headaches and stress in some people.

• Stress leads to the release of histamine which trigger asthmatic attack.
