Sphenopalatine Ganglioneuralgia


Baslikta gorulen
fancy sey aslinda Toroslarda brain-freeze olarak bilinen, henuz Turkce bir karsiligini duymadigim bir olayin bilimsel adi.

Olay cok soguk bir icecek veya yiyecek(dondurma) damaga aniden temas ettiginde gerceklesiyor. Soguk temas ile kan damarlari buzusuyor. Buna muteakip, sinirler beyne kan damarlarinin acilmasi gereksinimini iletiyor. Bu ani acilma, dokularda 1-1.5 dakika boyunca normale donmeyecek, bosalmayacak bir akis sagliyor. Bu da alna bir agri olarak saplaniyor.(Tum yuklemleri -misli gecmis ile cekiniz lutfen)

Yazlari genelde benim de muzdarip oldugum bu amansiz kronik hastalik ile ilgili British Medical Journal`de aydinlatici makaleler bulmak mumkun.

  1. How to Stop Brain Freeze

    Nothing ruins the refreshing consumption of a cold substance on a hot day like a painful brain freeze, also know as an ice cream headache and medically as Spheno Palatine Gangleoneuralgia (the pronouncing of which can give a headache as well). Fortunately, if you are a victim of brain freeze, you aren't completely helpless in the matter.

    STEPS:

    1.Understand what causes brain freeze. When the cold object touches the roof of your mouth, the blood vessels contract in response in an effort to prevent loss of body heat. As the coldness recedes, the blood vessels relax again, quickly increasing blood flow to the brain. This sudden release is what causes the intense headache sensation.
    2.Prevent cold food from touching the roof of your mouth. Obviously, you're not going to give up cold foods just so that you can avoid brain freeze. Rather, let the bite or sip warm on your tongue before you let the substance touch the roof of your mouth.
    3.Relieve brain freeze pain by quickly warming the roof of your mouth (also referred to as the soft palate and hard palate; the hard palate being the part with bone, and the soft without) after it's already been cooled. If you do this soon enough, you may be able to ease the surge of bloodflow to your brain:


    Touch your tongue to your soft palate. If you can roll your tongue in a ball, press the bottom of your tongue to the roof of your mouth. The underside of your tongue may be warmer than the top side which was probably cooled by the Slurpee you just chugged. (Some people find that firmly pressing your tongue against the roof of the mouth alleviates brain freeze, so try applying extra pressure!)
    Drink a warm substance. Slowly sipping room temperature water also does the trick for some people.
    Make a mask with your hands to cover your mouth and nose. Breathe quickly, raising the temperature inside your mouth.
    Press a warm thumb against your palate.
    4.Wait it out. The brain freeze will usually pass on its own within 30-60 seconds. Sometimes the shock of the brain freeze makes it seem worse than it really is, but if you expect it and know that it'll come and go, it doesn't have to be a traumatizing experience.
