Why do you get "brain freezes"?

Question

You know, when you drink or eat something cold, and you get that pain in your head, why is that?

Thank you!

Answer 1

It might be that the signals from the nerve endings responding to the cold are greater than the signals controlling the thinking process, Regards. UK

Answer 2

There's a nerve in the roof of your mouth that, when cold, causes brainfreeze. You'll find that rubbing your tongue on the roof of your mouth helps relieve it.

Answer 3

Answer 4

Answer 5

It's the same thing when people have weak teeth and cannot stand

cold liquids in their mouth. Well use a special toothpaste for it.

Think about your smile when you are a model.
