Dr. Harvey Finkelstein Discusses Headaches

Headaches Can Hurt

Almost everyone has experienced the pain associated with headaches at some time in their lives.  Since it is so common a complaint, it is beneficial to know a few facts about headaches.

Headaches can be classified into two major categories, primary headaches and secondary headaches.

Primary headaches are head pain which is not derived from any other type of ailment or problem, the problem is the headache itself.

There are several types of primary headaches, tension headaches, migraines and cluster headaches.

Sinus headaches are secondary headaches because they are caused by the pressure in the head which a sinus infection causes. There are many other conditions which can also cause a headache, and if you are not sure what is causing your headache and you have ruled out that the headache is a primary headache; then it is important to have a doctor, such as Dr. Harvey Finkelstein, who is an expert in pain management, check what the cause of the headache may be.
