==Overview==
The vast majority of headaches are benign and self-limiting. Common causes are [[tension headache|tension]],[[Neck pain]], [[migraine]], eye strain, [[dehydration|dehydration]], low blood sugar, and [[sinusitis]]. Much rarer are headaches due to life-threatening conditions such as [[meningitis]], [[encephalitis]], [[cerebral aneurysm]]s, [[hypertensive emergency|extremely high blood pressure]], and [[brain tumor]]s. When the headache occurs in conjunction with a [[head injury]] the cause is usually quite evident. A large percentage of headaches among females are caused by ever-fluctuating [[estrogen]] during [[menstruation|menstrual]] years. This can occur prior to, during or even midcycle menstruation.

Overview

The vast majority of headaches are benign and self-limiting. Common causes are tension,Neck pain, migraine, eye strain, dehydration, low blood sugar, and sinusitis. Much rarer are headaches due to life-threatening conditions such as meningitis, encephalitis, cerebral aneurysms, extremely high blood pressure, and brain tumors. When the headache occurs in conjunction with a head injury the cause is usually quite evident. A large percentage of headaches among females are caused by ever-fluctuating estrogen during menstrual years. This can occur prior to, during or even midcycle menstruation.
