Why Do I Never Have Headaches

Why have I never had a headache?

I'm serious. I've never had an honest-to-God headache in my life. Not even the morning after getting wasted do I feel so much as a twinge up there.

Why? The only answers I see around the internet are "because you're lucky" or "well, woohoo for you, jackass" or "try bashing your skull in with a lamp, see if you have a headache then".
Not very helpful, if you ask me.

I definitely don't have a stress-free life. I stress about losing socks. Not exactly Buddha, here.

Am I just a freak of nature (well, more of a freak),is it something medical, or actually just luck? My grandmother got migraines all the time. My own mother gets headaches quite frequently.

Really, I'm wondering. I just want to know what it's like. I mean, I'm not gonna go out and try different methods until my head finally goes, "fine, but you asked for it, pal". It's just that kind of sick feeling of, "It can't be that bad. Bet I could handle it" and then sobbing on your bathroom floor once you realize that no, you cannot, in fact, handle it.

So, any actual answers?

Why do some people never get headaches?

Yes, the predisposition to having headaches is often genetic. It should be kept in mind that headaches are generally divided into Primary and Secondary Headaches. Primary headaches are idiopathic (no obvious cause) and Secondary Headaches are caused by something obvious.Amongst Primary Headaches, Tension-Type and Migraine Headaches are by far the most prevalent. These headaches have strong familial underpinnings. In fact, some of the genes causing Migraine have been identified (A Novel Locus for Familial Migraine on Xp22). Further information can be found on Wikipedia (e.g., Genetics of migraine headaches).

Do dogs ever get headaches?

I've seen this question a couple of times previously and although, I've see it, it's still an excellent question. I

The answer made complete sense to me, so I'm going to copy and paste it. Remember though ... I didn't write this answer so credit goes to a woman named Katter, who said:

" Yes, dogs get headaches.

They will usually rub their heads on the floor, it's fairly uncommon for a dog to have a headache, just look for abnormal behavior, especially when rubbing anywhere on the head but the ears. Call your vet should it occur, your dog might of hit its head and will need to be treated.

They usually sleep it off if it isn't caused by a bump, just as a human would. And in that case, you don't need to do anything."

Aside from what Katter typed in her answer, I found web site that sells aroma-therapy products strictly for dogs, and there is one or two that can be used for canine headaches.

So, I have to say yes, that I think it's very possible. for a dog to get a headache.

Edit to add: I hope that Katter doesn't mind the fact that I "borrowed " her response, especially since I gave her credit for for it. I thought her answer made a lot of sense.

Why don't some people ever have headaches?

As far as we know, 5 to 10 percent of people have never had headache. We know that some headaches are clearly genetic.The pain experience for all of us begins when unpleasant stimuli activate sensory nerve fibers called nociceptors. These specialized fibers — which are located in skin, muscles, joints, and some organs — transmit pain signals from the periphery to the brain, where the message of pain is ultimately perceived .The brain itself does not feel pain because there are no nociceptors located in brain tissue itself. This feature explains why neurosurgeons can operate on brain tissue without causing a patient discomfort.A major difficulty in the development of new therapies for headache is that there are no animal models that can distinguish between these types of headaches. Nevertheless, scientists are hopeful that their growing knowledge of the unique chemical factors that activate nociceptors in the head (compared to the rest of the body) will lead to the development of new drugs that are particularly effective in alleviating the symptoms of the most common headaches, as well as migraine.

I've never had a headache EVER....

and no im not complaining, im more wondering if anyone else is the same. Also, just curious as to why. Maybe someone else has been to the doctor and asked if it was normal to not have one...I also ask because EVERYONE I know has headaches and I don't.

Is it weird that I've never had a headache?

Not at all. A large portion of the population “never have headaches” or the headaches they’ve had are so minor and infrequent, they forget about them. Others have never had headaches unless following concussions or during severe viral infections.Tension-type headaches are the most common headache variant and most people will experience a few of these; for many of these people, the tension-type headaches are so infrequent and minor that these individuals can say they’ve “never had a headache.”Most headaches, whether minor, tension-type or more severe migraine attacks are visited upon those carrying the genetic predisposition for Migraine. Other headache syndromes exist, but are comparatively rare.Genetics of migraine headaches - Wikipedia
