Subject: "Brain freeze"?
Can anyone tell me what mechanism causes the rapid, brief headache pain
when a cold substance is ingested quickly? Related to this is my
question regarding the brain not sensing pain during brain surgery, but
a person's perception of headaches as localized pain within the brain?
Is this a paradox or are headaches not actually occuring within the
brain?
