What causes headaches?

Dehydration and loud poundings on the eardurms. (? Thats how I get my headaches)

Answer 2

The most common cause is tension in the muscles of the shoulders, neck and head, which includes facial muscles. It is believed that migraine is a tension headache which has gotten out of control. Stress is the greatest cause, sometimes when we have a fever, or bad head cold, a headache can occur especially when our sinuses are swollen and congested. Sinus headaches hurt in the bones of the face and behind the eyes. Migraines tend to be on one side of the head or the other, though it can escalate to the top of the head as well. Migraine headaches can be quite severe.
