One-eighth of all people in the USA experience migraine headaches. Make an appointment with the Anesthesia Pain Care Consultants now if you are suffering from migraine headaches.
Migraine pain can range from mild to severe and persist for up to 72 hours. In addition to the throbbing and pulsing pain, you may also experience a sensitivity to lights, noises, and odors. Migraines can even be strong enough to cause nausea or vomiting.
How Do I Know If It’s A Migraine?
Doctors diagnose migraines by reviewing the patient’s medical history and symptoms. Then they rule out any other possible causes of headaches to guarantee the patient is suffering from migraines. Migraine sufferers might get a variety of therapies, ranging from lifestyle changes to pain medications. This is determined by the frequency and severity of migraine attacks.
Why Do I Get Migraines?
No clear cause for migraines has been identified, however, doctors have determined several potential triggers for migraine attacks. These include:
- a chemical imbalance in the brain (particularly serotonin)
- Genetics
- Hormonal changes (especially in women)
- Certain foods and drinks
- Sensory stimuli
- Stress and sleep disturbances
- Physical exertion
- Weather changes
- And certain medications.
Not all triggers can be managed, but all must be identified to be able to decide the correct medical treatment to reduce the frequency and severity of these attacks.
