Why Do I Get A Brain Freeze So Easily?
Brain freeze, also known as an ice cream headache, occurs when something cold touches the roof of your mouth or back of your throat, causing blood vessels in those areas to rapidly constrict and then dilate. This sudden dilation triggers pain receptors, sending a signal to the brain that you’re experiencing pain. Some people may be more sensitive to this sensation due to genetics or a higher concentration of nerve endings in the mouth and throat.
