Eat more ice cream, the brain will "freeze"?

Original title: Eat more ice cream, the brain will "freeze"?
hot, eat more ice cream, but Ms. Sun after eating a few ice cream, feel headache, can not sleep. Upon examination, Ms. Sun was diagnosed with "brain icing".
's the brain freezing? Was it scary to hear the noun for the first time? We know that the brain is the most important and delicate organs of the human body, it is very demanding for the environment, too cold, too hot, too little blood flow, too much, will cause adverse consequences, if the brain really frozen, it will be disastrous consequences.
's going on with "brain ice"?
In fact, "brain ice" is not really the brain ice, the so-called "brain ice" refers to a large number of fast eating ice cream and other cold food, low temperature stimulates the mouth and triggered a headache-based chain reaction.
western medical community noted this as early as the 1980s, and medical researchers have studied the phenomenon because it occurs mostly after eating ice cream, known as an "ice cream headache".
In order to explore the source of "brain ice", the author in the United States National Medical Library conducted a professional search, and did not find the "brain ice" literature, indicating that there is no such statement abroad, on the contrary, the "ice cream headache" literature can be found some, therefore, "brain ice" abroad does not have such a statement, but also does not match the actual situation. The name of the specification should be "Ice Cream Headache".
Therefore, we do not recommend calling this symptom "brain ice" too much, after all, this is not a standard disease name, but also easy to cause people's panic, should be called "ice cream headache."
the "ice cream headache" came about?
"ice cream headache" is essentially a vascular neurotic headache. There are many reasons for vascular neurone headache, headache caused by eating cold drinks mainly has two reasons, one is that people with a history of migraines, eating cold drinks in large numbers is stimulated, can stimulate nerves and cause headaches. A 2004 experimental study of "ice cream headaches" in Turkey confirmed that 74 per cent of migraine patients had "ice cream headaches", compared with 32 per cent of patients with tension headaches. A survey of 8,359 teenagers in Taiwan also confirmed that the prevalence of "ice cream headaches" increased significantly among migraine students, reducing or giving up ice cream to reduce the risk of "ice cream headaches".
Second, cold drinks into the mouth, to the relatively high temperature of the tongue and oral mucosa caused a strong stimulation, causing arterial spasms, and then turned to passive expansion, blood flow impact on the dilating artery wall of the painful nerve endings and cause headaches. At the same time, cold food stimulates the muscle nerves in the lower palate and is transmitted to the central nerves of the brain, causing headaches, dizziness and other symptoms. A study published in the European Journal of Neurology confirms that "ice cream headaches" occur due to defects in the burst discharge and pain control mechanisms of trigexual neural pathps.
the "ice cream headache" to deal with?
eating cold food in large quantities, headaches occur, mainly in the middle of the forehead or near the temple, and tears, nausea, vomiting. Durations are tens of seconds to tens of minutes, or even longer.
If you eat a large number of cold drinks after the above performance, we should consider for the "ice cream headache", you can massage the pain area on your own, you can also pinch the pain side of the valley, can alleviate symptoms, at the same time, to stop eating cold drinks, drink warm water to improve the temperature of the mouth, but also help relieve symptoms.
the above treatment, symptoms are not alleviated, it is timely to the hospital, so as not to delay the illness.
"Ice cream headache" prevention is mainly to avoid eating a large number of cold food, especially in the hot season, outdoor exercise, cerebrovascular dilation, if you eat a lot of cold food, or with cold water, will cause "ice cream headache."
in cold weather, we should also pay attention to the head insulation, avoid prolonged exposure to cold air, can prevent the disease.
In fact, "ice cream headache" is not without its useless, in 2006 in the International Journal of Dermatology reported the use of "ice cream headache" treatment of photoretic hornification disease, the principle is the use of low temperature treatment, similar to our common cryotherapy bar. Of course, in today's highly developed medical technology, the practical value of this treatment is still to be further studied.

can get an "ice cream headache" like a hot drink
In 2004 Turkey reported two cases of "ice cream headache" after drinking a hot carbonated drink, arguing that migraines of "ice cream headaches" are more likely to occur after drinking hot drinks because, in addition to the speed and temperature of the drink, they are also associated with central sensitivity.
therefore, "ice cream headache" is not the patent of cold food, should be a variety of hot and cold unemost to the mouth stimulation, resulting in the interaction between nerves and blood vessels. Avoiding too cold and overheated foods is key to preventing "ice cream headaches".
It should be said that "ice cream headache" is not entirely caused by ice cream, even hot drinks can cause, therefore, "ice cream headache" name is not appropriate, how to be more accurate, more realistic name, still need to be studied by experts. (Ji Guangwei)
