A Common Type Os Headache

x By Herman N. Bundesen, M.D. PEOPLE who have migraine headaches seem to have a typical type of personality. They are usually alert, active individuals. It is thought that perhaps some emotional disturbance may lie behind this, common type of headache, at least in certain cases. In migraine, the pain occurs only on one side of the head in most cases, and it is also interesting that those who are subject to these headaches usually have some sort of warning sign before the attack oc> curs. For example, they may feet depressed, and irritable or festleSs, have poor appetite, see spots before the eyes, or feel a tingling or numbness of the arms and legs. Headache Develops Soon after these signs are noted, the headache develops, it is quite ' severe and is often accompanied by sickness at the stomach and. vomiting. Sometimes there are attacks of in the abdomen. The attack may last for a few hours to several ■days. • 7 ■ • ; ■> Vnfortunately, up to the present, ~ no one has found the real cause for migraine. It has been suggested that perhaps it is due to some disturbance of the glands of internal secretion, to defective vision, or to allergy or oversensitivity, among many other things. ‘ In any event, during au attack: there is some disturbance of the circulation of the blood vessels in the brain. Just before the attack, blood vessels become constricted. Then they become dilated or im created iu size; which cawes the

The last fair was held there in 1889. |The county commissioners made yood use of a portion} of the grounds it the site for jhe hospital. Vhe southwest half ' jof the tract is not used, except for Sr weed breeding bed. The Adams County Roadside Council proposes that steps be taken to convert the unused acreage into a park and playgrounds. Such a project would be a good civic undertaking for next yetr. '’° ° 1 ' - Should truck lines be licensed to haul explosives, TNT or .other highly dangerous chemicals over .our highways’ The Adams County Roadside Council, of which Mrs. Wilbur Stanley is the presi.dent* is opposed to the-granting ; of- a permit for this hazardous traffic on the highways A petition to engage in this, traffic has been filed by a large trucking line with the Interstate Commerce and opposition to it •ihas been expressed by several - State governments, highway of- * fieials, the Association. of American Railroads and the American Association. Our oVer ’burdened highways, the opponents ■point out, should noh z be subjected bto the’ dangers ensuing from the jiauling of explosives. These groups also emphasize tihat while Xhe danger of transporting explosives is not eliminated when (done by the railroads, tije fact rejnains that the railroads are better equipped to handle this line ..Of business.

: headache. i. ; In treating migraine, many different drugs have been used. The ;<Jne., which up to the present seems jto have the greatest effect in relieving the symptoms is called ergotamine. A combination of-this drug with caffeine is also quite useful and seepis to giveimarked relief when taken at the onset of an ’attack. The preparation is, of course, best taken by mouth under the direction of a physician in the dose which he prescribes. Patient Should Rest A r | During, an attack, the patient should be at rest in a quiet, dark? ened room. Cold\ applications to the ■■head may be hejpful. i; Those who have migraine should have a complete physical examination made so that any disorders present in tf.e body may be discovered and c'eared up. Treatment by a psycu.atrist has helped to make the attacks less frequent in certain cases. The migraine sufferqr can be helped in many instances, but he • must put himself under the care of a physician and follow the treat'meat outlined for him. I] QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |‘H.
