A headache when you lower your head may be related to cervical spondylosis, occipital neuralgia and insufficient blood supply to the cerebral arteries.
1. Cervical spondylosis: patients with cervical spondylosis may have cervical spondylolisthesis, and when the patient lowers his head, the peripheral blood vessels and nerves are stimulated by pulling, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the arteries, which induces dizziness and headache and other symptoms.
2. Occipital neuralgia: generally caused by a variety of secondary factors induced by impaired nerve function, which can cause severe pinprick pain in the head and neck, most of which can occur when the head is lowered, and generally lasts for a few seconds to dozens of seconds.
3. Insufficient blood supply to the cerebral arteries: when bowing the head, it is easy to induce blood circulation in the brain, causing cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, which in turn induces dizziness and headache symptoms.
Headache when head down may also be related to other factors, it is recommended that patients need to go to a regular hospital to receive further examination by a specialist doctor according to the cause of the disease to guide patients to receive treatment.
