Tension headaches

A tension headache is the most common type of headache. Your head, neck, and behind your eyes may have mild, moderate, or severe discomfort as a result. A forehead-tightening band may be how a stress headache feels. This is a recognizable symptom of a tension headache.

If you experience chronic stress, you may also get chronic tension headaches. Stress makes headaches more likely to occur. Stress can cause headaches of any kind, including migraine and tension headaches, and it can exacerbate current headaches. An occasional tension headache is often brought on by a single stressful event. A major source of stress is this cycle of pain, which can exacerbate the pressures of daily life.
