A tension headache (TH) is a condition involving pain or discomfort in the head, scalp, or neck, usually associated with muscle tightness in these areas. Characteristics of tension headache include:
  • Tension headaches are described as dull, non-pulsating, persistent pain
  • Headaches can last from 30 minutes to seven days
  • Patients may experience intolerance to either noise or light
  • Tension headaches are not associated with nausea or vomiting
  • The tension-type headache (TTH) is generally not aggravated by physical activity.
Tension headaches are one of the most common forms of headache. They can occur at any age, but are most common in adults and adolescents. If a headache occurs two or more times weekly for several months or longer, the condition is considered chronic.
Tension headaches result from the contraction of neck and scalp muscles. One cause of this muscle contraction is a response to stress, depression or anxiety. Any activity that causes the head to be held in one position for a long time without moving can cause a headache. Such activities include typing or use of computers, fine work with the hands, and use of a microscope. Sleeping in a cold room or sleeping with the neck in an abnormal position can also trigger this type of headache.
Other causes include eye strain, fatigue, alcohol use, excessive smoking, excessive caffeine use, sinus infection, nasal congestion, overexertion, colds, and influenza. Tension headaches are not associated with structural lesions in the brain.
Tension headache can be divided into two types:
  • Episodic - usually associated with some stressful event, is of moderate intensity, self-limited, and usually responds to nonprescription preparations
  • Chronic - often recurring daily, bilateral location, usually occipitofrontal and associated with contracted muscles of the neck and scalp
SYNONYMS
  • Muscle contraction headache (MCH)
  • Cephalgia
  • Benign headache
SYMPTOMS Tension headache symptoms include:
  • Headache
    • Dull, pressure-like
    • Generalized, worse in the scalp, temples or back of the neck
    • Not one sided
    • Feels like a tight band or vise on the head
    • Occurs as an isolated incident (or occurs constantly or daily)
    • Worsened or triggered by stress, fatigue, noise, glare, etc.
