The most common type, tension headaches, affects more than 70% of certain populations, with a slight prevalence among women (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.who.int\/news-room\/fact-sheets\/detail\/headache-disorders\">WHO<\/a>).<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Migraines:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> More intense and often more debilitating, migraines present as severe, pulsating pain on one side of the head. They are often accompanied by symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. About 12% of the population suffers from migraines, with episodes lasting between 4 and 72 hours (<a href=\"https:\/\/americanheadachesociety.org\/ahslink\/the-migraine-research-foundation\/\">Migraine Research Foundation<\/a>).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3 class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"--fontsize: 24; line-height: 1.2; --minfontsize: 24;\" data-fontsize=\"24\" data-lineheight=\"28.8px\"><b>Triggers: What Causes Your Pain<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Headaches:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Stress, dehydration, loud noises, or changes in sleep habits are common triggers for headaches.
