Common Chronic Headaches

By Hermar N. Bundesen, M. O. MOST of uh at some time or another have headaches and it is well ’ to know that thia pain within the bead may be produced by many thing* However, a great majority j of tamdaehe# would appear to develop because of change# within the blood vessels in the brain. Palling on the veins and arteries each as may happen as a result of injuries or tumor- will producr a vere pain. Distension or ewelline of the arteries due to increased flow of blood tiwough them cause*. headache The majority of prop!- with chronic headache*. according to Dr. John R. Williams. Jr., of North Carolina, have either migraine or histamine headaciwcMigraine Recurrent Migraine is a recurr nt type of "beadaehe that usually affects just one side <rf the head. The cause for it is not definitely known. It is uunally prec -de<l by what is known M an aura, auch as seeing flashen of light. Together with the headache in almost all instances. there are dis turbanceh of tl»- eyesight, sickness to the stomach and vomiting. The heda< he# frequently last for hours or days. The doctor may relieve many of these headache by giving a drug known as ergotamine tartrate Histamine headaches also usually affect only one aide of the lhead They may occur at almost any time of life but are fnuch more doasmon in the later yeas# while migraine, *» a rule, gets less eevwe as a person gets older. The headaches usually last only a few hours and they begin and end suddenly. They frequently begin at night and aft n are relieved by I sitting or standing. Nasal Discomfort Together a Ith the b adache. there way he watering of the eye on the affectwd aide, and som« eUSiness of the nose. Following the headache 'the patient often has sumo t ndorgess of the scalp. - hw . ihl Mtlif J JeJMy Sas!vliv» ffidj t- ■ ■ .*• fcflfck. -■ Li> r *“

Let's work on a local plan and see if the situation cau be Unproved. o—o—- — township assessors will use the "Red Book" of values in assessing automobiles, the schedul » | taking into consideration yearly depreciation charges, flood work I horses will be assessed al | 100 and race hors » up to SSOO. Assess * or's re< ords show that the num ■ her of horses in the county had been declining every year, while the numb.r of tractors, despite war rationing, has gone up. -o—o The war has added to Britons' knowledge of their past. Bombings have uncovered handsome mosaic pavements, previously unknown. dating back to Roman ( tinws. Either new buildings had , been deliberately erected on old | sites, or more prultubly rubbish < accumulated over them until they i.w re lost to memory.

This amount of flour, according to traditional milling methods, which gives 72 pounds r of flour and 2H pounds of animal I’ a feed for each on -hundred pounds -j | of wheat, would require 275 mill- n ! ion bushels of wheat. Under the 1 I ’ new extraction the name amount ( ot flour would b- milled from 245 million bushels of wheat —* *av- , ing of 27 million bushels of wh at < tor shipment to hungry nations. f ’

Furthermore, the patint often may be cured hy giving him inpections of histamine tn gradually increasing doses. Headsches may come thorn a variety of < apses. For example, it is found that some persons who arc over sensitive to certain foods may have chronic headaches. If a food sensitivity is suspect d, it is a good idea for the patient to keep a record of the foods he eats ao that he can sometimes d termine just which foods produce the difficulty. Then, of course these may be eliminated from the diet. Blood Pressure High blood pressure may also produce headaches of vascular type. Dr Williams also thinks that certain disturbances ot the glands of internal secretion, such as the pituitary gland at the bar. of the brain, the ovaries, and the thyroid gland in the neck may also be responsible for frequent headaches. Treatm ut with glandular extracts has l>een reputed to give reliet in some patients. Another cause for vascular headaches Is low blood sugar. Inf-ct-lon* in the teeth, tonsils and sinuses. arthritis and vitamin deficiencies may also )*e responsible. Os course, in all cases of headach there Is need for catreful study to determine the cause before the most effective treatment can be earri-d out. Another article on headaches will appear shortly. Questions and Answers A. K.: My tongue gets little eruptions on the tip which spread and remain for som*- time and than disappear. What could cause this? Answer: It is Impossible to tell without an examination by a physician what is causing the .difficulty with your tongue. It might Ire due to some infection, vitamin deficiency or allergy—that is oversensitivity to some food which you eat. When the cause la found. propr>* treatment may Ire prescribed.

With inflationary heat almost at the flash paint this can't help hut lie a back-break-ing assignment. I liav« agreed 110 lake- it on liecause President Truman has assured me of his full support and because 1 believe that this Is one issue on which the American people an- united, regardless of politics. There is a lot more at stake, here Ilian just a safe and sane re-: conversion period. The road we travel during the nest few monthsj can determine tbe'couise of our economy — and the world’s —for years to come J think our biggest danger riant' now is that of a psychological in flation. Too many people are bet-, ting on inflation. There Is too much } loose talk to the Sffect that infla-' tion hi Inevitable or that It Is al-. ready lere. Obviously that can have the same result as a run on | a bank unless It is effectively; aquelchid by facts. The facts are) that since Muy 1*43 when the Hold the-Llne order .wa« issued, Increases in the cost bf living have been decisively checked. It is only in the uncontrolled areas such as the slock market and real estate where there is any runaway Inflation. I hope too that we can tiv»uitun get out of pceple’b munis Ute' -A-

Jdea that under the new wage-price 'formula there Is going so be any I retreat to a new bigner line of I prices and rents. There will of course, be some price increases, but they must be limited to certain metal gcxnb and must not be allowed to affect the no percent of the average family',c exp e n ditures whic.t go for such things as rent, f ><»d and clothing. The first big job is to gi-i produc - tion rolling at full speed because production Is the best rufety valve for inflationary pnwsuree. But at the same time we mus' never forget that inflation will not get us production. Certainly no one man can do this job alone. And price control can't do it alone. Management, la bor, farmers all government agencies and the Congress arc- going to have to work toge ther to meet this emergency in the same spirit and with many of the same took we used to meet the same- kind of production and stabilization problems before V-J clay. It is obvious now that the end of the* shooting has not meant the end of the producion and stabilization task. i Sincerely. Charter Bowies, Administrator. Special Services And Meetings Ot Church?'
