Pathophysiologic Difference between Migraines, Cluster Headaches and Tension-Type Headaches
The key pathophysiologic difference between cluster headaches, migraines and tension-type headaches is that cluster headaches can be a genetic or distu
ed circadian disorder; migraines are neurovascular disorder, whereas tension-type headaches can also be a result of chemical effects of nitric oxide. As mentioned by Donnet (2015), if a distant relative possess cluster headache, the risks increases to 14-39 times, of the activation of gray matter of posterior hypothalamus, which in turn, dominates the autosomal chromosomes thus causing this disease, apart from the reasons being activation of autonomic nervous system, increase in mast cells, distu
ed circadian cycle and release of histamine.
On the other hand, as stated by Weaver-Agostoni (2013), in case of migraine, neuronal waves initiate from the
ain, which spread to the blood vessels, within few minutes. The excited reaction in the form of aura begin from the cere
al cortex, which are mainly due to the trigeminal nucleus present at the
ainstem, thus, causing migraine. The pathophysiology of tension-type headaches is different from these because sustained pericranial myofascial inputs cause excitements in the central nervous system, which are mainly due to the reaction of nitric oxide to the
ain, thus causing this disorder (Waldie, Buckley, Bull & Poulton, 2015).
