What Causes Barometric Pressure Headaches?
Barometric pressure headaches are caused due to air-pressure changes following weather changes • Change in pressure brings about changes in the oxygen level, which in turn causes headache. • Many a times the blood vessels try to compensate for the lowered oxygen level by contracting and expanding. This exertion leads to migraine. • Headaches and migraines can be the resultant of many factors – like high temperature and humidity, overcast skies, etc. etc. • Weather changes sometimes also effect chemical changes in the body, which again trigger headaches and migraines. • Electrically charged air very often sets off a bad headache.
