🤕 What is Migraine? 🤕
A migraine is a type of headache characterized by intense, throbbing pain, usually on one side of the head. It’s often accompanied by other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light and sound. Migraines can last for hours or even days, significantly affecting a person’s quality of life.
There are different types of migraines, including migraine with aura, where the headache is preceded by visual disturbances or other sensory changes, and migraine without aura, which lacks these warning signs. The exact cause of migraines isn’t fully understood, but they are believed to involve genetic and environmental factors. Triggers can vary widely and may include stress, certain foods, hormonal changes, and environmental factors.
Treatment typically includes a combination of lifestyle changes, medications to prevent migraines, and pain relief measures during an attack. Managing migraines often requires a personalized approach to identify and avoid triggers and find effective treatments.
