I have a headache when I eat something cold! I will explain the mechanism.

Hello everyone!

“Kasuga Dental Clinic” in Monzennakacho.

 

Did the physical condition remain the same despite the intense heat?

Please be careful about heat stroke measures by hydrating frequently.

By the way, this time we are talking about shaved ice and ice that you want to eat on a hot day.

 

  • Why do I have a headache when I eat something cold

Have you ever had a headache when eating ice or shaved ice?

About this headache, looking at a survey, it seems that there are many onsets among young people aged 13-15.

Looking at gender differences, we found that women had more headaches than men.

 

  • What causes ice headaches?

The cause of headaches caused by ice and shaved ice is that the trigeminal and glossopharyngeal nerves are cooled.

The trigeminal and glossopharyngeal nerves perceive cold stimulation as pain and give the brain a false stimulus.

This is the cause of the ice headache.

 

  • How to deal with ice headaches?

What should I do to reduce my headaches when the ice and shaved ice is still delicious?

To prevent ice headaches, it is best to raise the temperature in the mouth by eating a warm teahouse soup before eating or drinking cold food.

 

If you have teeth rather than a headache, you may be hypersensitive.

Hypersensitivity can be treated in a dental office.

Please contact us by all means.
