Q: Why do bad headaches cause me to be more irritable?
I’ve been getting really bad headaches a few times a day every day for the past few years. The headaches cause me to be irritable and a little mean towards other people. I feel nauseous when I get these headaches. I’m sometimes a bit shaky and my anxiety increases. The pain goes away after I take some tylenol but I don’t want to depend on tylenol every single day.

A: Are you generally angry inside, but don’t vent it?

this can cause bad headaches for some people. some people who suffer with Depression also have frequent headaches too.

I have very thick, curly hair, up to shoulder length.

Q: Does sleeping in a humid environment cause headaches and back pains?
Hi, does sleeping in a humid environment cause headaches and back pains? Would a air humidifier help? Thanks.

A: Yes, so i would get an AC or take a cold shower when you start feeling this way. Or try not wearing thick cloths.

Q: Does too much peanut butter cause headaches and constrict blood flow?
Recently I have been eating 1000-2000 calories worth of peanut butter daily along with other things of course, only for the purpose of gaining weight, and since then, I have had massive headaches, and even now I am having a headache. I am beginning to think there is something in peanuts that constricts or slows down blood flow and causes them, so am I right or is there some other cause?

A: This is interesting. I just typed in “peanut butter consumption headaches” in Google, and came up with a number of results. What I mostly found is that it’s listed as a trigger food for migraines.

So, if you’re prone to migraines, than that could be what is causing your head to ache.

Hope this helps! I know chocolate (en masse) does that to me.

Q: Can being close to a power plant cause headaches/eye pain while viewing movies on my LCD?

A: Do you wear eye glasses or contact lense to correct your vision?

Eye-related headaches typically occur after extended periods of reading, watching television, computer work, or other close work that requires intense concentration. This type of headache usually disappears after a period of rest. In some cases, headaches may be caused by eyestrain related to eyeglasses. A tendency for the eyes to cross or drift outward may also bring on headaches.

One eye problem known to cause an intense headache is angle-closure glaucoma. With this type of glaucoma, the headache is only part of the problem. Patients suffering from an angle-closure attack also may experience nausea, intense pain around the eye, blurred vision, and haloes around lights.

Headaches caused by eye disease are unique in their symptoms and types of pain. It is important to make detailed notes of your symptoms, type of pain, lifestyle and what you were doing when the headache began. This information is very helpful to the physician to diagnose the type and cause of the headache you are experiencing.

The symptoms from headaches can be extremely variable and depend on the underlying problem. Because of the scope of the various types and causes is so immense, the following the headaches are described with the typical symptoms as they relate to the eye.

Headaches related to eye fatigue:

Headaches that begin after an extended period of reading, computer use, watching television, or close work

Burning eyes

Fatigue

Migraines

Throbbing pain

Sensitivity to light and sound

Nausea and vomiting

Visual “aura” including: light flashes, jagged lights, missing areas of vision

Acute angle-closure glaucoma

Intense headache that is usually centralized over brow area

Nausea and vomiting

Glare or haloes around lights

Stress relief, control of blood pressure, or medication to maintain appropriate hormonal levels may be necessary. New glasses or different work lighting may be prescribed by your doctor.

If you have persistent headaches, it is important to consult your medical doctor about them for a medical evaluation.

Q: Can wheat or gluten cause headaches and if so why?
I was told by my doctor that I might be allergic to wheat or dairy and that might my reason for my headaches. I went on a dairy free diet for two weeks and was still having headaches. I have been wheat and gluten free for almost a week now with no headaches but I was wondering why wheat or gluten would cause a headache?

A: Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease triggered by gluten found in wheat, rye and barley and products made from them. The gluten attacks the lining of the small intestine and disrupts the ability of the nutrients to be absorbed as well as allowing the gluten molecules to get through the lining which in people without celiac disease, the gluten doesn’t penetrate the intestinal wall. So either through a lack of a nutrient or a person’s reaction to gluten, it causes headaches or migraines in some people. Not all celiacs get headaches because the symptoms are so varied that it is hard to diagnose CD. Many people take an average of 8 years to diagnose from the onset of symptoms because the symptoms look like so many things.
Good luck maintaining a gluten free lifestyle. I have been gluten free for almost 6 years and it gets pretty easy once you adjust and change your diet. There are a lot of substitute products for breads, pastas and desserts so it is just a matter of finding those you like in taste and texture. Remember, frest fruits and veggies are gluten free as well as nonprocessed meats. Once you start getting into sauces and gravies is the place where gluten can be hidden if you don’t make them.

Q: Can keeping your hair in tight braids or pony tails or wearing headbands cause headaches?
I’m occasionally prone to migraines and often get tension headaches. Sometimes, if I’m wearing my hair up, I find some relief when I take it down. I was wondering if anyone knows if it’s actually possible for a ponytail to cause headaches.

A: I know it can cause some discomfort if you wear your hair up. Also, there have been reports of headbands causing discomfort. If they are too tight they can cause headaches. A ponytail is not the problem, its how tight you pull it back. Check out this website for headband styles and brands that won’t create the headband headache.

Q: Can sleep apnea cause headaches during the day?
I have sleep apnea…or atleast I think I do. People tell me that when I sleep, I stop breathing for awhile and make noises like I am choking. Is this sleep apnea? And if it is, does it cause headaches throughout the day? Because I have headaches almost everyday and I can’t think of what causes them.

A: You kind of have 2 questions here so to answer, yes, when you stop breathing when you’re sleeping it is typically referred to as sleep apnea. The noise may be you ‘catching’ your breath when you do start breathing again. Also, since the brain/body is being deprived of oxygen AND you don’t sleep near as well with apnea as you would without this condition, your headaches could be caused by either the lack of oxygen, or the severe lack of sleep, or a combination of both. You should see your doctor and have a sleep study done. Then you can take steps to resolve the problem.

Q: What can cause headaches while looking at a computer?
I have had my eyes checked, I have the right glasses, my computer is eye level but yet I am getting headaches more frequently while using my computer (sometimes even nausea) what else could be causing this? I dont think its glare because this is how its been for awhile.

A: Its just the way the pixels are used on a monitor, trust me i went through MRI’s cat scans and all the bit because i thought i had a brain tumor from all the headaches and worsening eye site. My doc said stay off the pc for a month, i did, and sure enough all my problems went away. until i started using the computer again, but oh well. best of luck.

Q: Can being overweight cause headaches when running?

Q: Can swelling in the eustachian tube cause headaches?

Q: Can an infected eyebrow piercing cause headaches?
I got my eyebrow pierced a couple months ago and it has been healing pretty normally, but today I got this really intense pain in my forehead and especially around my piercing and my eye. It doesn’t seem to be infected. There’s no swelling or discharge or anything but I don’t know what else would cause that. Is it an infection or just a headache?

Q: Can wet hair laying on your neck cause headaches?
Sometimes when I put my hair in a really low bun and let it lay on my neck after I’ve gotten out of the shower, I get really horrible migraines.
