Probably, there is no person who would be completely unfamiliar with a headache. It occurs quite often and is caused by various reasons. But the danger of its occurrence is that it can be a symptom of many serious diseases.

Severe headache may also indicate:

• hypertension;
• osteochondrosis;
• atherosclerosis;
• kidney disease;
• organic damage to the brain;
• post-traumatic syndrome;

Distinguish the pain that occurs on the one hand, in the temporal, frontal, occipital region, in the whole head as a whole.
