Chronic headaches Report
Several areas of the head can hurt, including the nerves, which extend over the scalp and certain nerves in the face, mouth, and throat. Also sensitive to pain, because they contain nerve fibers, are the muscles of the head and blood vessels found along the surface and at the base of the brain.
