Tension Headache
DEFINITION
A condition involving pain or discomfort in the head, scalp, or
neck, usually associated with muscle tightness in these
areas. Tension headaches are one of the most common
forms of headache. They can occur at any age, but are
most common in adults and adolescents. If a headache
occurs two or more times weekly for several months
or longer, the condition is considered chronic.
Tension headaches result from the contraction of
neck and scalp muscles. One cause of this muscle
contraction is a response to stress, depression
or anxiety. Any activity that causes the head to
be held in one position for a long time without
moving can cause a headache. Such activities
include typing or use of computers, fine work
with the hands, and use of a microscope.
Sleeping in a cold room or sleeping with the
neck in an abnormal position can also trigger
this type of headache. Other causes include
spinal misalignment, eye strain, fatigue, alcohol
use, excessive smoking, excessive caffeine use,
sinus infection, nasal congestion, overexertion,
colds, and influenza. Tension headaches are not
associated with structural lesions in the brain.
