What Is a Migraine?
Migraine pain can last for hours or even days, making it one of the most debilitating types of pain. According to Dr. Ozanne, a migraine is "a throbbing, pulsating headache that is often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light and sound."
Migraines can be caused by several factors, including stress, hormonal changes, certain medications, and food additives. There is no known cure for migraine pain, but there are treatments that can help to lessen the severity of symptoms.
Over-the-counter pain relievers, such as ibuprofen, are often effective in relieving migraine pain. However, some people find that prescription medication is necessary to provide relief. If you suffer from migraine headaches, talk to your doctor about your treatment options.
