Headache is a non-specific symptom; People usually do not like to go anywhere when they have a headache. They avoid light, loud noises etc and prefer to be alone.

Pathophysiology of headache:

Headaches often result from a reaction or irritation of the meninges and blood vessels. The receptors can also be stimulated by factors other than head trauma or tumors and cause headaches. This includes stress, dilated blood vessels, etc.

Tension headache occurs on both sides of our head.

Migraine headaches are severe headaches that are usually accompanied by other symptoms such as vision changes or nausea.

Management of Headache or Shirhashula in Ayurveda:

Improper diet and lifestyle worsens Vata and Kapha. Vata gets blocked due to Kapha in the head region which leads to headache. As the pain intensifies, Vata also disturbs Pitta which obstructs digestion leading to the production of digestive impurities called ama. This ama gets deposited in the emotional sources, causing headache.

The team of doctors at DAD Ayurveda Multi-specialty Ayurveda Hospital understands the treatment of headache which depends on the underlying etiology or cause and not on the basis of symptoms treats it which does not give permanent cure but subsides for some time .
