I have a terrible headache.
There are various kind of headache, and one of which is called "ice-cream headache" or "cold-stimulus headache."
This headache refers to a headache that occurs during a few minutes immediately after eating cold food such as ice cream.
Various studies related to the ice-cream headache have been conducted, but because of the short symptom, the onset mechanism has not been elucidated yet.
There are two widely accepted theories about the cause of the ice-cream headache.
One is says that when the temperature in your oral cavity sharply decreases, the blood vessel leading to the head will expand reflexively in order to raise your body temperature.
The other says that when the trigeminal nerve of your throat is stimulated with a cold thing, a transmission signal is generated, and your brain misunderstands it as joint pain.

アイスクリーム頭痛
私は今、頭がとても痛いです。
頭痛にはさまざまな種類があり、その内の一つに「アイスクリーム頭痛」というものがあります。
これは、アイスクリームなどの冷たいものを食べた直後に数分程度発生する頭痛のことを表します。
アイスクリーム頭痛に関するさまざまな研究が行われていますが、すぐに収まる頭痛であるため、発症メカニズムの解明などは進んでいないそうです。
原因に関する有力な説として、次の二つがあります。
一つは、口腔内の温度が急激に低下することで、反射的に体温を上昇させるために頭に通じる血管が膨張するというものです。
もう一つは、喉の三叉神経が冷たい物で刺激され、このときに発生する伝達信号を脳が関節痛と勘違いするというものです。
