Brain Freeze and Other HeadachesUnlike some other headaches that cause stomach pain or sensitivity to light/noise, brain freeze has no effect other than a stabbing sensation in the brain. Additionally, it was found that those who suffer from various headaches and/or children whose parents have experienced brain freeze are more prone to experiencing brain freeze. Other types of headaches experienced by parents were not related to the child experiencing brain freeze, but children of parents who never experience headaches were also less likely to experience brain freeze.
