π Not all summer headaches are dehydration. Here is the practical triage in four slides.
β’ Dehydration headaches typically resolve within an hour of adequate water and rest.
β’ Tension-type headaches feel like a band and often relate to screen time, sleep, and posture.
β’ Cervicogenic headaches start from the neck and radiate up. Both may respond to osteopathy.
β’ If a headache reaches maximum intensity in seconds to a minute, if you have fever with a stiff neck, if there are sudden neurological changes, if this is the worst headache of your life, seek urgent help. Time matters in those situations.
