Headaches are a common and often debilitating symptom that can arise from various underlying causes, including neurological, vascular, and psychological factors. Having focused on the neuroscience of headaches with our comprehensive examination, our team of experts at BrainHub explore the potential neural mechanisms involved in headache pathophysiology and pain processing. Our interdisciplinary team of experts have gained insights into the role of neurotransmitters, cortical spreading depression, and trigeminal nerve activation in migraine, tension-type headache, and cluster headache disorders. Here are some research evidence on the above:
