"The cause can range from simple tension-type headache to a life-threatening brain tumor."
There are very few people who have not experienced a headache. We all know how significantly it can impact all aspects of life, including school performance, social activities, sleep, mood, appetite, and family interaction. Also, although we often talk about a headache it is surprising how only a few people know that there are several different types of headaches. The cause can range from simple tension-type headaches to a life-threatening brain tumor.
If you are bothered by headaches and simple over-the-counter medications such as aspirin or paracetamol do not do the trick then, it’s always worth seeing your physician rather than sitting and suffering in silence.
Psychiatry is one of the neglected fields in our country where even today we are fighting to establish psychiatric illnesses as medical disorders in the true sense. A mental illness is not a character flaw. It is caused by genetic, biological, social, and environmental factors. According to a report from the World Health Organization (WHO) one in four people around the world suffer from mental health problems at some point in their lives. With appropriate treatment and support, people with mental illness can have normal life and live successfully in their community. It is high time we took these illnesses seriously.
