What to do about vascular tension headaches

Patient's question:

I always get a headache every time before the final exams, and it gradually disappears after the exams are over. I have had a thorough medical check-up at the hospital, but there were no problems found. My family has a history of hypertension. What should I do? How do I deal with tension headaches?

Doctor's answer:

There are many causes of headaches. Common causes include poor rest or tension headaches, but they may also be caused by diseases such as high blood pressure, brain thrombosis, insufficient blood supply to the brain, or cerebral vascular malformations. Acute infectious diseases, such as colds or pneumonia, can also cause headaches. Additionally, cervical spondylosis can lead to head and neck pain. Consuming certain medications or having a history of trauma may also cause headaches. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a thorough examination, such as a head MRI, to confirm the diagnosis and receive further treatment based on the situation.
