Darien CT- Maybe This is Why you Still Have Headaches Dr.McKay Core Health Darien

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a clear liquid that acts like a cushion for your brain and spinal cord. It also helps wash away waste and brings nutrients to your brain. Normally, this fluid flows through tunnels in your brain and down your back.Think of it like a plumbing system in a house. If a pipe gets clogged or squeezed, the water has nowhere to go and starts to build up. When the flow of CSF is blocked, the fluid builds up inside your head. This creates extra pressure against your brain and the inside of your skull, which causes a painful headache.Common reasons for this "clog" include:The shape of the skull: Sometimes the back of the skull is too small, pushing part of the brain downward and blocking the fluid's path.A "kink" in the pipe: If the neck or spine is out of alignment, it can squeeze the space where the fluid flows.Injury: A bad bump or fall can sometimes cause swelling that slows down the flow.When the pressure is relieved and the fluid can flow freely again, the headaches usually go away. That is why chiropractic care should be an obvious choice for resolving headaches.Core Health Darienlink to schedulehttps://calendly.com/corehealth/headacheHave a Question?
