Price Elasticity of Demand measures how responsive demand is to changes in price. It is calculated by taking the percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price. Perfectly inelastic demand does not change with price changes. Inelastic demand changes less than proportionately to price changes. Unit elastic demand changes proportionately. Elastic demand changes more than proportionately. Factors like substitutes, necessity, income share, and time period impact price elasticity. Producers use elasticity estimates to predict revenue and tax impacts and for price discrimination.
Elasticity measures the responsiveness of quantity to price changes. It allows economists to compare markets without standardizing units. There are own price elasticities of demand and supply that measure responsiveness of quantity to the good's own price. Demand is more price sensitive when elasticity is further from zero. Total expenditures can increase or decrease with price changes depending on elasticity. Other elasticities include cross price and income elasticities.

Migraines are caused by abnormal brain activity and involve intense headache pain, though the exact triggers are unclear. A migraine involves four stages - a prodrome phase with subtle symptoms 1-2 days before, an aura phase with sensory disturbances right before, the attack with severe headache pain and other symptoms, and a postdrome hangover phase after. While there is no single test to diagnose migraines, keeping a symptom journal and ruling out other causes with medical tests can help doctors make a diagnosis. Treatment involves preventative daily medications and acute pain relievers during attacks, though overuse can cause rebound headaches. Common triggers include hormonal changes, foods, smells, lights and stress. Managing triggers and lifestyle factors
