A member asked:
Do headaches cause stiffness , inflammation an back tension ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually not: Usually, headaches are not the cause of things. It tends to be the opposite... other things are the cause of headaches. However, one thing can lead to another... meaning that some of the things a person does to herself to get headache relief may lead to having other symptoms elsewhere in the body.
