Like most long-term and episodic conditions, Migraines have several factors leading to an attack. With approximately 12%
of the American population suffering from them, the importance of knowing the triggers cannot be ignored. Migraine was
the sixth leading cause of “Years Lost Due To Disability” in the World Health Organization’s Global Burden of Disease
Study in 2013. Many are confused if the treatment is possible for the same? The obvious answer is Yes. However, the real
journey to therapy begins with a basic understanding of the condition.
Causes And Risk Factors
Over time, the number of episodic

headaches increases.
Over usage of medications to limit the

rising number of headaches.
Anxiety or depression
Obesity
Disrupted sleeping pattern
Excessive intake of caffeine
History of physical or emotional trauma
Underlying health issues
Other pain disorders
Snoring
Periodic nausea
A variety of parameters contribute to the

development of severe headache attacks:
While a few factors that may contribute

significantly to the growth of migraines include:
Causes And Risk Factors
Symptoms
Medium to severe head pain on one or both
sides of the head (further worsened by any
physical movement)
Sensitivity to light, sound, and smell
Nausea or vomiting
Dizziness
A growing number of episodic migraine
attacks
Overusing medication for relief
General or classic migraine symptoms cover:
However, migraines progress through four
stages in individuals of all ages: prodrome, aura,
attack, and post-drome. Each of these stages
has distinct symptoms.
Treatment
Usually, migraines are left untreated, which worsens
the pain and causes severe emotional distress. The
entire diagnosis program focuses on the appropriate
management of lifestyle choices– adapting to healthy
habits supported by minimal medication for relief.
These changes might include: exercising for about
half an hour daily, improving diet patterns, stress
management through yoga and meditation, and
staying hydrated.
While medicated treatment may begin with a simple
painkiller and thus gradually increase the dose as
required.

Migraine headaches can be reduced in number and severity with a suitable treatment
routine. Many patients may experience migraine attacks again. Thus, using
medication and non-medication preventive techniques and addressing known risk
factors should be the primary focus of pain management.
