Can toothache cause headache?

Generally speaking, when we have a toothache, it rarely causes pain in other organs. But sometimes, if the dental nerve hurts, it can cause a headache. At this time, the pain is more severe. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for treatment in time when you encounter this situation, because dental neuralgia is likely caused by disease. Timely treatment can reduce certain risks.

When the human body's immune level decreases, such as when suffering from a cold or extreme fatigue, the bacteria in the mouth will rapidly develop in the dental lesions, causing inflammation or even abscesses. The teeth will feel severe pain, which is called "getting angry" in traditional Chinese medicine. When the body suppresses inflammation through "fever" or using anti-inflammatory drugs, the toothache disappears. Every toothache will cause irreparable damage to the gum tissue, and the teeth will gradually become loose and fall off, causing greater pain to the patient.

Keeping your mouth clean can prevent dental diseases. In addition to brushing your teeth every day, you should also remove food debris, plaque and harmful bacteria deep between teeth after meals. The American-imported Clean-Bi water flosser uses 1,200 ultra-fine high-pressure pulses of water per minute to clean deep between teeth. Each one-minute use can completely remove food debris that is difficult to remove with a toothpick. It is safe and easy to use, and a one-time investment benefits the whole family. Many people who use the Waterpik water flosser have found that their gum bleeding stops after a few days and think that this small appliance is magical. In fact, the reason is very simple. With fewer bacteria, the inflammation disappears, the wound heals, and naturally there will be no bleeding. Using an oral irrigator every day can not only relieve the pain of dental disease, but more importantly, it can prevent many diseases caused by bacteria entering the blood system through gum wounds. A person will have countless headaches in their lifetime, and migraine is the most common type of headache. This disease is particularly prone to attack young people, especially young women. In recent years, foreign studies have found that certain foods may cause migraine attacks, while certain foods can treat and prevent migraines.

Milk, dairy products, alcohol and chocolate were some of the first foods discovered to potentially cause migraines. The chocolate and wine that many people are addicted to contain high levels of tyrosine. This amino acid is converted into adrenaline once it enters the human body. The increase in adrenaline will cause headaches. Young people are not only a high-risk group for migraines, but also the largest group of consumers of foods such as milk, dairy products, alcohol, and chocolate. This may be one of the reasons why young people are more susceptible to migraines. Some people believe that people who often suffer from migraines are allergic to certain foods and suffer migraines due to allergic reactions after eating them. An experiment found that flour, oranges, eggs, beef, etc., which people often eat, may cause allergic reactions and headaches. After avoiding eating these foods, the headaches will be relieved. Foods can both cause and treat headaches.

Studies have found that most migraine sufferers have low levels of magnesium in their brain tissue. Magnesium is an important ion component in human intracellular fluid and has some special functions, such as inhibiting nerve excitement and adjusting vascular tension. There are significant differences in brain magnesium levels in migraine patients during attacks and remission. Therefore, in order to prevent migraine, in addition to paying attention to the combination of work and rest, getting enough sleep, and avoiding anxiety and tension, patients should eat more magnesium-rich vegetables, fruits and other foods to increase the magnesium content in the brain, which will help relieve and treat migraines. Foods that are high in magnesium are also rich in various other nutrients such as protein, vitamins and minerals. They include cereals such as millet and buckwheat noodles, beans and soy products such as soybeans, broad beans and peas, as well as vegetables and fruits such as Chinese mustard, winter vegetables, mushrooms, seaweed, peaches, longan, walnuts and peanuts. Eating these foods can prevent and treat migraines, relieve anxiety, and supplement various other nutrients necessary for the human body.
