Migraine

A migraine is a neurological condition characterised by recurrent, intense headaches that can cause significant pain and other symptoms. Migraines often involve a throbbing or pulsating sensation, usually on one side of the head, and can last from a few hours to several days. They are typically accompanied by additional symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, and in some cases, visual disturbances known as aura. When suffering from a migraine, you may feel like you need to lie down in a dark and quiet room and not move until it passes. The causes of migraine are not exactly understood but they may be linked to dilating blood vessels in the head swelling and causing pressure in the brain. Understanding triggers, managing symptoms with appropriate treatments, and seeking medical advice for severe or persistent migraines are crucial steps in effectively coping with this condition and improving quality of life.
