Not all headaches are the same

Headaches can be very different and individual. A basic distinction is made between primary and secondary headaches. Apart from a genetic predisposition, stress, tension and various irritants are often responsible for headaches. Primary headaches have pain as their main symptom. The pain is not caused by any other disorder. Secondary headaches are symptomatic headaches that are triggered by other disorders, such as craniocerebral trauma.

The most common primary headaches include tension headaches, which usually start insidiously in the neck or forehead area and spread over the whole head like a helmet that is too tight. Migraines are just as common. Their symptoms include one-sided, pulsating pain that can be made worse by light, movement or loud sounds. Cluster headaches are less common. These are sudden, stabbing pains that are localised behind one eye. Each type of headache needs special treatment. In our online shop you will find the right medication against headaches.
