Migraine

Migraine is a complex and debilitating neurological disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of severe headache, often accompanied by other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound.

It affects approximately 12% of the global population, making it one of the most prevalent neurological disorders worldwide.

Migraines are thought to result from abnormal brain activity that affects blood vessels and nerve cells in the brain.

The exact cause is not fully understood but is believed to involve a combination of genetic, environmental, and hormonal factors.

Migraine attacks can last for hours or even days, significantly impacting individuals’ quality of life by interfering with daily activities and productivity.

Treatment options for migraines include various medications to manage acute attacks and preventive measures aimed at reducing the frequency and severity of episodes.

Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as stress management, regular exercise, maintaining consistent sleep patterns, dietary adjustments, and avoiding triggers are often recommended adjunct therapies for managing this chronic condition effectively.
