About This Article
The intricate connection between PTSD or psychological trauma and chronic headaches or migraines highlights the profound impact these conditions have on individuals’ lives, particularly those who have experienced significant psychological trauma.
While stress headaches, also known as tension headaches, are prevalent worldwide, affecting up to 80% of adults and children at some point in their lives, trauma-related headaches present distinct challenges. Trauma-induced headaches, often observed in individuals with PTSD, may manifest as migraines, tension headaches, or other types of headaches, exacerbating cognitive impairment or brain fog.
Psychological distress and emotional dysregulation commonly associated with trauma-related headaches can further impair cognitive function, making it challenging to focus, think clearly, or perform cognitive tasks effectively.
