«Breaking News» The surprising things that could be causing your headaches

Painful headaches can strike unexpectedly and leave you feeling tired, washed out or worse, nauseous and bed-ridden.

Research  has shown the ailment is so common that up to a third of the world's population suffer from this affliction a daily basis.

And while some causes are obvious there are also a few lesser-known reasons for what causes headaches and migraines. 

From air conditioning to poor posture and even ill-fitting bras, here FEMAIL takes a look at some of the more unusual headache triggers.

Air conditioning

Many homes and offices come fitted with air conditioning as a way to control the elements.

But for those who suffer headaches, this could potentially be a cause.

This is because air conditioning removes all moisture from the air which can lead to dehydration.

On top of this, air conditioning units can circulate dust and mould and if you are prone to allergies this can leave you with swollen and painfully blocked sinus passages.

'Then, there’s the fact that when it gets too cold, the blood vessels in your brain can contract, resulting in headaches,' Sporteluxe reports.

Certain foods

If you get headaches after you've eaten, these may be caused by consuming certain foods.

Alcohol, chocolate, and caffeine have been identified as common migraine triggers, however, other foods, particularly those that are aged, pickled, marinated or smoked have also been found the cause of some headaches.

The reason for this is these foods contain a naturally occurring compound called Tyromine.

Tyromine is also found in larger amounts in over-ripe bananas, avocados and chocolate.

Poor posture

Slumping and slouching isn't just bad for your posture, it's also a cause of tension headaches.  

Tension headaches are generally characterised by a constant ache and feeling of pressure round the head.

They are usually caused by either muscle contractions or chronic tension in the head and neck region.

A change in the weather

While you wouldn't expect it, a change in the weather can be enough of a trigger to set off a headache in some.

This is because pressure changes that affect the weather are thought to cause imbalances in brain chemicals, including serotonin, which can prompt a migraine, the Mayo Clinic's website states.

'Weather-related triggers also may worsen a headache caused by other triggers.'

Wearing an ill-fitting bra

If you're wearing the wrong size bra for your shape, this could be a contributing factor as to why you may be suffering headaches. 

Paula Svoboda, a Sydney-based bra fitting specialist said previously that wearing the incorrect size, along with the weight of the breast can cause stress on the shoulder, which then leads up the neck.

'Headaches can be triggered by bras which are either too tight or too loose, but more often they are caused by looser fits,' she said.

Her claim is supported by Triumph's 2008 research, which found 70 per cent of women surveyed wore bras that were too small, while 10 per cent wore excessively large designs.

Sex headaches

For some, a passionate night between the sheets can result in painful headaches.

According to the sex researcher, Dr Margaret Redelman 'sex headaches' - which affect men more - come in two forms.

The first, called pre-orgasmic headache, is triggered by a build-up of pressure that increases as sexual excitement does.

And the other, dubbed orgasmic headache, have an 'explosive, throbbing quality and appear just before or at the moment of orgasm'.

This thunder-clapping pain has been described as feeling 'as if you’ve been hit over the head with a cricket bat'.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
