More on Migraines
Migraine headaches have very specific symptoms. Migraines are also called vascular headaches, because they are believed to be caused by changes in the flow of blood in the vessels of the head.
Symptoms of a migraine include throbbing pain on one or both sides of the head and sensitivity to light or noise. Because migraines may also cause nausea or vomiting, they are sometimes called "sick" headaches.
Although the headache comes on quite suddenly, it is sometimes preceded by visual disturbances, such as zig-zagged lines, called an aura. Dizziness and numbness on one side of the body may also precede a migraine. The headaches last from a few hours to a few days, and recur from several times a week to once every few years.
Migraines are more common in women. The headaches may begin during childhood, but most begin during the teens and early twenties.
