Migraines are headaches that have become very severe and cause excessive pain. When a migraine occurs, simple everyday things such as light and sound become unmanageable. Enlargement of the blood vessels and chemicals that release from nerve fibers around the blood vessels cause migraines to occur. Some of the many things that can cause migraines are:
- Sensitivity to light, music, etc.
- Allergies and allergic relations
- Stress: physical and emotional
- Menopause and menstrual cycles
- Alcohol and Smoke
- Etc
Symptoms of migraines include vomiting, nausea, pain primarily on one side of the head, pulsing, throbbing, etc. Statistically, women get migraines more than men. Migraines are also closely related to hormone fluctuations, causing women to get them more frequently. Men tend to get cluster headaches more often. Cluster headaches are ones that occur at the same time every day but last only about 90 minutes. Although migraines decrease with age, if you experience migraines, it is good to take measures to get rid of them early.
