What is a Migraine?
A migraine is a distinct type of headache disorder characterised by recurring episodes of moderate to severe head pain. It often accompanies symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, and visual or other sensory disturbances. These migraines can significantly disrupt daily life and may last for hours or even days if left untreated.
Why do I have migraines?
Migraines can stem from various triggers and factors, including genetic predispositions, hormonal fluctuations, certain foods, stress, sleep disturbances, and environmental stimuli. Identifying personal triggers is key to managing and preventing migraine episodes effectively.
How do I know if I have a headache or migraine?
Distinguishing between a headache and a migraine can be challenging. Headaches typically involve a generalized sensation of dull ache or pressure in the head, while migraines manifest with intense throbbing pain, often concentrated on one side of the head. Additionally, migraines may present with accompanying symptoms like nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound.
