Blood Flow Fingered In Ice Cream Headaches

Blood Flow Fingered In Ice Cream Headaches.

"The researchers saw that the anterior cerebral artery widened just before the subjects got the headache, and it contracted just as the pain started to pass. This artery was likely bringing extra blood to the brain in an effort to keep it warm. Which means that pressure from the extra fluid inside the skull could be to blame for the passing pain."

Will medical wonders ever cease?
