📖What is Headache?

Headache is pain or discomfort felt anywhere in the head, scalp, or upper neck, ranging from a mild, dull ache to intense, throbbing pain that can be disabling. It may be localized to one area, such as one side of the head, or felt more diffusely across the entire head. Headaches can occur occasionally or become a recurring, chronic problem depending on the underlying cause.
