6 types of headaches that should not be ignored
The rush of every day, stress and problems often cause headaches in people. Taking a medicine for a headache became as common as breathing. This custom is not good because when the body feels pain it is warning that something is not going well and needs the attention of the person. Ideally, check the actual reason for the pain.
