Ninety percent of all headaches are vascular, muscle contraction, or a combination. Migraine headaches usually occur in childhood or adolescence and recur throughout adulthood. They are more common in females and have a strong genetic factor. Most chronic headaches result from tension or muscle spasms that may be caused by emotional stress, fatigue, menstruation, or stimuli such as noise, crowds and bright lights.
