Causes of headaches change the time

Sudden changes in weather can cause changes in the health of a person. This is confirmed by many according to their state of health and their experience. But is it true or is it just a fantasy?

Generally, in all cases of change in atmospheric pressure, some suffer from headaches. When the rain aggravates rheumatism, in the cold increases the risk of vascular spasms and heart attacks.

Scientists from different countries conducted experiments and studies to determine the impact of climate change on human health and obtained the following results:

Backache – The results of scientific studies and scientific experiments have not confirmed the theory of the effect of climate change on health. The results of the study conducted by scientists from the Universities of Melbourne and Sydney, in people suffering from joint, back and knee pain, are unrelated to sudden changes in weather conditions – changes in temperature and atmospheric pressure.

As confirmed by the results of a study conducted by scientists in Norway, these results.

"Headache" – German scientists have looked into the matter and have followed the health status of a group of Berliners for a year. The group suffered from almost permanent head pain. The researchers compared the period of pain episodes to the change in time and concluded that one-third of the pain cases were increased with increasing cold and humidity.

Canadian scientists have found that migraines are stronger on certain days when the air pressure is high. On the other hand, the results of a Japanese experiment have shown that the headache in some people even appears at low atmospheric pressure.

Heart – The results of several separate studies conducted in Japan and Sweden on the impact of sudden cardiac change in the heart have shown that reducing extreme temperatures can lead to an increase in cardiovascular disease. According to these results, doctors say that in fact, low temperatures can cause heart attack or even cardiac arrest.
