What is a Migraine Headache?
What are the Types of Headaches?
There are over 200 different types of headaches that are divided into two main categories: primary headache and secondary headache. A primary headache is one that develops on its own and not as a result of another health problem. The most common types of primary headache include tension-type headache, migraines, and cluster headaches. A secondary headache is one that results from another health problem.
