Why does it rain and give me a headache?

Headache is a common disease. Many diseases can cause headaches. Some people get headaches when it rains. This kind of headache is either a rheumatic headache or pain caused by cold. In fact, no matter what causes the headache, we must pay attention to it. If it is a serious headache, it will not only affect our normal life, but even our work may be affected.

Symptoms of rheumatic headaches

1. Rheumatism: It is mainly caused by wind evil, which invades the skin, joints, and meridians. The nature of wind is wandering, so the clinical feature is wandering pain. Because wind is a yang evil, "the upper part of the body is affected first", so it often occurs in the upper limbs, shoulders and back. If the Wei Yang is not solid, the knee joints will be empty, so there will be aversion to wind and symptoms of Hanchu.

2. Cold arthralgia: mostly caused by insufficient Yang Qi and invasion of cold evil, manifested by fixed pain in limb joints, aggravated by cold and relieved or alleviated by heat. Because cold causes contraction and its nature is stagnant, it is often accompanied by aversion to cold, limb cramps, difficulty in flexion and extension, and tight pulse in clinical practice.

3. Dampness and arthralgia: It is mainly caused by the influence of dampness, which stays in the limbs, joints and skin. The clinical manifestations are characterized by swelling, pain, numbness and heaviness in the above-mentioned parts. Because the spleen controls dampness, and dampness is sticky and obstructs the flow of Qi, symptoms of the spleen failing to transport dampness are common, such as a heavy head, chest tightness, poor appetite, abdominal distension, fatigue, greasy tongue coating, and a slow pulse.

4. Heat Bi: It is mainly caused by the invasion of heat evil or damp-heat evil, or the invasion of wind, cold and dampness evil into the body and turning into heat. It is characterized by redness, swelling, heat and pain in muscles and joints, accompanied by fever, sweating, thirst, yellow and greasy tongue coating, and slippery and rapid pulse. Because heat is a yang evil, it can easily damage yin fluid, so redness and swelling are obvious, and are often accompanied by symptoms such as erythema, nodules, thirst, and dry stool.

5. Dryness and Bi: It is mainly caused by the influence of dryness evil, or because the yang heat evil turns into dryness and damages the yin, resulting in the lack of nourishment to the muscles, tendons, bones and joints, resulting in a type of Bi disease. Because "dryness prevails and causes dryness", yin blood and body fluid are insufficient, and tendons, bones and joints are not nourished. Therefore, the main clinical symptoms are thin muscles, stiff joints, dry mouth and nose, dry and astringent eyes, etc.

6. Wind-cold-dampness arthralgia: Wind, cold and dampness come together, which is the original meaning of "cold and dampness come together to form arthralgia". When treating a patient, it is necessary to distinguish which of the three is more serious. If wind and dampness are the main symptoms, it is called "wind-dampness arthralgia": if cold and dampness are the main symptoms, it is called "cold-dampness arthralgia"; if wind, cold and dampness are all present, it is called "wind-cold-dampness arthralgia".

7. Damp-heat arthralgia: It is mainly caused by the influence of damp-heat evil, or the long-term accumulation of evil qi such as wind, cold and dampness and the transformation into heat.
