A member asked:

What might be causing my headaches, usually on the drive home from work?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stress: Most likely stress at the workplace plus additional muscle tension maintaining attention while driving. Consider if you respond strongly to stress in other situations and whether long drives cause headaches. Do you have headaches on non-work days?
