In Good Health: Why Headaches Are Misunderstood
Headaches are one of the most common neurological conditions in the world. They’re also one of the most debilitating, mysterious, and misunderstood.
According to the World Health Organization, 3 billion people worldwide suffer from headache disorders. And one in six Americans suffers from headaches that are so severe they limit their ability to work, sleep, or otherwise function.
We discuss headaches as a part of our series “In Good Health,” where we talk about the bodily issues that most affect us.
What do we know about headaches and who they affect? What works when it comes to treating headaches?
