What could be the link between experiencing heartburn and headaches at night?

Heartburn and headaches at night can sometimes be linked by stress and other lifestyle conditions, such as alcohol or tobacco use. It is also possible that the cause of your heartburn symptoms is different from the cause of your headache symptoms.

Explanation

Heartburn and headaches experienced at night can sometimes be related due to shared triggers like stress, alcohol use, and/or tobacco use. For example, stress, alcohol, and tobacco smoke can all be triggers of tension-type headaches.

It is also possible that the cause of your heartburn symptoms is different from the cause of your headache symptoms. A healthcare provider can provide a personalized medical assessment to determine the reason(s) for your symptoms and the most appropriate treatment plan for you.
