Headaches
Due to my son’s headaches I have been searching online for causes of headaches and migraines. Although most people think that headaches are an adult problem, I was informed by doctors that a lot of children suffer from them.
Headaches in children can have several origins:
- Stress due to exams or other situation
- Too much television and computer
- Infection
- Too much video games
- Little rest
- Etc.
There are also less common reasons like:
- Brain Infection
- Tumors
- Meningitis
- etc.
I also have headaches and migraines and spending all day (and night) looking at a computer screen doesn’t help at all. I really don’t know how people with programmer jobs can look at the screen hour after hour. At least I know where my headaches are coming from: exposure to the screen, stress and anxiety.
Well, my son has a follow up hospital appointment next week and I am really afraid of the diagnosis. Although there are no other neurological symptoms like nausea or vomiting, the almost constant light headaches are not normal. His eyes were checked and new lenses made. I admit that he watches a little too much television but his headaches pop up when he has to concentrate on something like looking at the blackboard at school or at a exam paper. When he is watching TV that doesn’t happen. Weird…I know.
