Doctor, specialist in the treatment of complex cases of diseases of the musculoskeletal system Elena Lisina, in an interview with URA.RU explained the appearance of headaches with meteosensitivity.
The interlocutor of the publication explained that the weather front thins the air, and when the rarefied air is inhaled, brain hypoxia occurs. In response, the release of stress hormones in the hypothalamus increases, and the synthesis of serotonin and dopamine decreases. The result is anxiety, hypersensitivity to all kinds of pain and migraines, Lisina said.
At the same time, she noted that the appearance of a headache is facilitated by linking an event into a chain of evoked reactions (apophenia is an experience that consists in the ability to see structure or relationships in random or meaningless data). The specialist noted that a sharp deterioration in the weather, the brain signals the danger. “At the sight of a cloud, the body triggers an almost conditioned reflex panic attack in various manifestations: difficulty breathing, anxiety, psychosomatic “dance” of symptoms. And this year, winter decided to diversify our everyday life with sharp temperature changes – up to 20 degrees difference in one day, a change from frost to a sharp thaw, ”the specialist concluded in a conversation.
Earlier, gastroenterologist Alexandra Yakovleva spoke about the dangers of excessive consumption of distilled water.
