I've had the worst tension headaches for over a year now. The worst part of them are the forehead muscle contractions (yes, tension headaches often include this-----it's often called "the muscle contraction headache"). They are so annoying. Does anyone know anything about the muscle contractions? I can't find much on them and I want so badly to get rid of them. The tension headache pills don't work because they don't help the contractions. Has anyone ever found anything on what causes them? I've read things about stress causing them, but I don't have any more stress than I did years before they started. I do know one thing....they started exactly one year ago after I went to a new eye doctor. Does anyone know if "eye problems" could cause tension headaches/muscle contractions? It's odd that they started right after I went to him and he changed my prescription (by a lot actually). Any ideas or help?
