What are the remedies for headache?

Headache refers to pain in forehead, parietal bone, temporal and occipital parts, and headache in a broad sense also includes pain in face and neck. It is an abnormal nerve impulse caused by the stimulation of some pain-causing factors in the pain terminal receptors of the head and neck, which reaches the cerebral cortex through the pain conduction pathway (the first pair of cranial nerves (ⅵ), the sixth pair of spinal nerves (ⅹ) and the 1 ~ 3 pair of spinal nerves) and produces pain through comprehensive analysis of the brain. Headache belongs to the category of pain and is an objective reflection of the human body on the factors that cause pain. It can be divided into primary headache, secondary headache, cranial neuralgia, central and primary facial pain and other headaches.

According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, there are many reasons for headache, such as the invasion of six evils (wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness and fire) and the obstruction of qi and blood circulation; Or internal injuries for a long time, lack of qi and blood, malnutrition; Or phlegm and blood stasis, blocking meridians, will lead to headaches.
