- Migraines: Intense, pulsating pain on one side of the head with additional symptoms, such as:
- Sensitivity to light and sound
- Nausea or vomiting
- Visual disturbances, like aura or flashing lights
- Cluster headaches: Severe, typically centered around one eye, and may cause:

Identifying these symptoms helps the team at Younger Medical Health and Wellness match treatments to each headache type, maximizing the potential for effective relief.
What Causes Headaches?
Headaches can arise from a variety of causes, ranging from lifestyle factors to underlying medical conditions. Common triggers include stress, dehydration, lack of sleep, and dietary choices, such as caffeine or certain processed foods. Hormonal changes, environmental factors like bright lights or strong odors, and even weather fluctuations can also contribute to headaches. For some individuals, underlying issues such as sinus infections may be the root cause. At Younger Medical Health and Wellness, we can review your health history and evaluate potential triggers to address both the symptoms and the underlying factors contributing to your discomfort.
