Headaches are another source of pain for many people. The onset of headache may occur for one or more of these reasons: dental problems, eye problems, high blood pressure, migraine, muscle tension, sinus disease, stress, anxiety, surgery, trauma and injury, or tumors.
Less common, but no less disruptive, is facial pain.
Facial pain is a complex combination of multiple pain-related disorders caused by more obscure conditions than headache pain including:
· Dental neuralgia
· Radiating pain from the scalp and neck
· Shingles
· Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome (TMJ)
· Trigeminal neuralgia
