ReplyDeleteabdominal pain,nausea or vomiting, throbbing headache, specific location of pain, associated “aura”, relief with sleep (headaches that awaken children, or early morning headaches, are probably not migraines – -they might be signs of a brain tumor)
most headaches are primarily caused by muscle tension around the neck and shoulders. After a while of being tense, nerves become irritated and cause a variety of symptoms. I suggest getting this checked out by a doctor... always remeber though, whichever doctor you go to, they will just tell you what they know or what they've been taught in med school.

So trust your body, it'll tell you how to heal yourself
