A report says over half of us get headaches. Researchers looked at 357 studies on headaches from 1961 to 2020. They had data on headaches and migraines. The report said 52 per cent of people have a headache every year. The lead researcher was surprised. The report is published in "The Journal of Headache and Pain".
Women get more headaches and migraines than men. Six per cent of women get headaches on 15 or more days a month. This number is three per cent for men. Headaches are common worldwide. More people are getting them. The researchers want more research to look at why we get headaches, and to try to stop them.
