Caffeine
Like sinusitis, was, it’s odd that there’s no mention of caffeine as a cause or cure of headache. Even though it’s both. Several articles do connect them but not this one! Stator Equilibrium (talk) 19:11, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
Sensitivity to sound
Under Causes - > Primary, written is "phonophobia (sensitivity to sound)[13]", I think this is incorrect (this is a phobia). I think the correct term for sensitivity to sound is "Hyperacusis". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.20.69.146 (talk) 00:57, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
