Subject of Headaches Continues
To Be Headache for Scientists
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York UP.; A year-end
review of what science knows
about headaches reveals that the
i headache for
science. You may call that a cry
ing shame because, in the words
, of the scientific reviewers,
I "headaches is possibly the most
i frequent complaint of modern
! man."
I Drs. Arnold P. Friedman and
! Theordore J. C. von Storch found
that in the last five years science
i hadn't added greatly either to
or its abilities to cure. But that
wasn t due to any lack of try
ing. They studied the reports of
117 investigations into causes
and how to find and treat causes,

in science's present
knowledge is that the headache
is always a sympton it is never
a disease.
Causes Obscure
But a sympton of what? Once
you have eliminated the acute
illnesses, the flaws in the body
structure, and the shocks (such
as a sharp knock on the head)
which can and do cause head
aches, you have' left an assort
ment of headaches the causes of
which are quite obscure.
These fall into two classifica
tions migraine and the tension
headaches which are, by far, the
most common kinds. The review
ers found the investigators in
general agreement that "the vast
majority" of tension headjehes
had their origins in the disturb
ed but hidden emotions of the
victims rather than in their
physical bodies.
As far the migraines, they
said: "Although it is difficult
to verify that in many of these
patients the primary etiology
(cause) is psychogenic (originat
ing in the mind) the importance
of psychologic factors in the
headache problem cannot be min
imized." The trouble here is that those
psychological factors can be dif
ferent from patient to patient.
The doctors remarked: "Not all
patients with migraine are com
pulsive, perfectionistic, or rigid
. . . repressed hostility is an
extremely common factor among
many persons who do not have
migraine and may have hyper
tension, ulcers . . ."
Factors Largely Unconscious
In tension headaches, they
found "the fundamental psychic
factors were largely unconscious,
although most patients were
aware of their anxiety. As in
migraine the most frequently
observed conflicts in cases of
tension headache were those over
hostile impluses. These patients

demonstrated aggression, hos
tility, and an intense resent
ment against members of their
families or persons who rep
resent figures."
Although a number of drugs
for the treatment of migraines
have been tried, they found that
most investigators still found
ergotamine tartrate the "most
useful." But mind - treatment
"may be of great value in re
ducing the intensity and number
of migraine attacks in most pa
tients." That is even more true
for tension headaches, they added.
