The worst headache comes right away on Monday morning around 10:00.

Then it reappears in the evening around 22:00, according to some researchers from the University of Michigan, writes focus.it.

By collecting and examining 21,741 tweets from migraine sufferers in the US and Europe, the researchers demonstrated that the results of this social media study are essentially comparable to those obtained from traditional scientific research.

Therefore, migraine affects about 12% of adults in the world, approximately 18% of women and 6% of men suffer from it.

Most, that is 90%, report that they have severe pain, 75% report that they suffer so much that they are unable to do almost anything, 30% even have to rest in bed.

Moreover, headaches are mostly a female problem: 74% of the tweets are sent, in fact, by women who are suffering from them at that moment.

Therefore, this study shows once again that Twitter is not just a tool to publish news or share emotions and perspectives.

Twitter is much more, because it is useful as a thermometer of the health of its users.

Moreover, it has long been used to measure the happiness of the world and even to play the stock market.

What the US research doesn't say is that social media itself may be one of the main causes of headaches.

According to a recent Doxa survey, one in three believe that headaches are a result of computer and smartphone abuse.
