Migraines are believed to be caused by abnormal brain activity affecting nerve signals, blood vessels, and chemicals in the brain.
Managing migraines involves rest in a dark, quiet room, using cold or hot packs, medications (pain relievers, anti-nausea drugs), and avoiding triggers.
The three main types are migraine with aura (classic migraine), migraine without aura (common migraine), and silent migraine (acephalgic migraine).
Yes, lifestyle factors like stress, lack of sleep, certain foods (like aged cheeses or processed meats), and environmental changes can trigger migraines.
Migraines themselves aren't life-threatening, but they can significantly affect quality of life and productivity during attacks.
Migraines can cause severe pain, nausea, and sensitivity to light and sound, disrupting daily activities.
Fast relief options include medications like triptans or over-the-counter pain relievers, rest in a quiet, dark room, and applying cold packs to the head.
Migraine attacks can last from a few hours to several days, with symptoms varying in intensity.
