Can radon gas cause migraine headaches?

In: Health, Migraine Headaches [Edit categories]

Answer:

No, exposure to radon gas, even a large amount, won't give you a headache. Radon is an inert or noble gas, and it is radioactive. Radon exposure is a bad thing as it is the second most common cause of lung cancer. But you won't be able to detect radon by any of your senses, and it will not directly cause you to be "sick" or for a "migrane" to appear. It will, after time, cause cancer because the radiation damage your lungs get from the long exposure. In the mean time, you won't feel a thing. At least not because of an exposure to radon gas.
