Causes and treatment with drugs and traditional medicine lumbago in my head

1 On what mechanism develops the disease

Thrusting craniatalgia is a consequence of the circulation and the appearance of impulses that pass along the chains of peripheral nerve receptors. Despite the fact that the analyzers of pain are supplied to all parts of the brain and skull, pain impulses are generated only by nervous structures associated with the trunks in the occiput.

In order for pain impulses to arise, certain conditions are necessary. Such conditions may be injuries or inflammatory processes of the peripheral nerves. At the same time, the structure of the processes of neurons is broken. This causes a sharp shooting pain. The impulse very quickly goes along the nerve trunk. Pain of this type indicates that the cause that causes it is not completely eliminated or that the structure of neurons is broken without the possibility of restoration.

Diseases that cause shooting pain:

• Neuralgia or neuritis of the trigeminal nerve
