Probable Tension HA: The most common type of HA is a stress or tension HA. The 2 types are: Chronic tension HA felt to be related to contraction of the neck and scalp muscles and Episodic or occasional tension HA usually associated with an acute stressful event. Episodic Tension HA responds to OTC ibuprofen, Aleve or Aspirin. Tylenol (acetaminophen) may be less effective. For more info SEE:http://bit.ly/1pMk6ao +http://bit.ly/1vDkL4C
