While there have been numerous studies of the link between air pressure and other weather conditions and headaches, a conclusive correlation has yet to be determined. Congestion headaches due to air trapped in the sinuses could be magnified by decreases in atmospheric pressure, as the trapped air expands in response to lower environmental pressure. Migraine headaches can be linked to weather sensitivity, but the weather conditions that bring them on can vary from individual to individual.
