What is a headache or migraine?

There are different types of headaches. One of these types of headaches is ‘migraine.’  Fifteen to twenty years ago, there was no outbreak of this disease. But over time, as the natural environment has changed, so has its extent. Outbreaks appear to be exacerbated in other parts of the country, such as the densely populated, dusty, and smoky environment. However, this migraine disease is slowly spreading so much that its form may be more frightening to future generations. So we need to know in detail about its various aspects and remedies. And above all, we need to know the details of what the world's medical scientists are thinking about this disease.

 

Causes of migraines.

Medical scientists have not yet made a definitive decision about the exact cause and cure of headaches. In a study on headaches in 1960, scientists found that tension often causes headaches and is easier to treat. Many people identify it as migraine pain when blood vessels do not adequately supply blood to the brain. It can also be due to tension or other reasons. Moreover, if the blood vessels sometimes supply extra blood for any reason, headaches can occur. This pain is more severe than migraine pain; However, it can be misunderstood with migraine pain.

It is thought that the onset of migraine pain due to tension or natural causes reduces the blood supply to the brain - which has some effect on the functioning of two parts of the brain called the occipital and parietal. As a result, it starts to cause headaches as an adverse reaction. Again, when the headache starts completely, the arteries of the cerebellum dilate - depending on the amount of 5-hydroxy tryptamine in the blood. However, scientists are still skeptical about the exact role of this element. The American Association for the Study of Headache is currently working to find the exact cause and cure for migraines.

The main reason

 

Hereditary effects.

Hereditary effects on migraine pain are more significant than other types of pain - mainly depending on the characteristics of a single 'gene' in the cell. As evidence, a team of neurologists from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Leiden in the Netherlands isolated migraine-related genes from the body of a migraine patient. The patient's migraine pain was no longer seen—the leader of the research team. Michael Ferry published the same information by researching 60 members of 10 families.

Tension, Anxiety, Instability.

It is more prevalent among those who are always anxious or suffer from anxiety due to personal or family reasons. Moreover, any dangerous news or emotional state suddenly gives birth to this migraine.

 

Birth control pills and some sex hormones.


 
On the other hand, a team of researchers from the Department of Medicine at the University of Mississippi conducted 100 women. According to researchers, there are certain sex hormones associated with headaches. Those who do not have regular menstruation have a higher rate of this migraine. Again, in many cases, the pain of this migraine can arise in the menstrual cycle. On the other hand, women who have been taking birth control pills for a long time have more symptoms.

 

Impact of Environment.


 
Currently, continuous population growth in big cities worldwide, including our country, is making the environment unbearable. Meanwhile, waste products and fumes from faulty vehicles have brought the environment to a state where the effects fall on our bodies. And migraine has been created as a cause of such an effect. According to a recent statistic, it is more prevalent among people in urban areas than rural areas.

The elements that affect.
Firstly,
Migraine pain intensifies after eating certain foods, or if there is a feeling of mild pain, it can turn into a full-fledged migraine.
E.g.

 

(1) Chocolate.
(2) Cheese.
(3) Alcoholism.
(4) Cola drinks.

Secondly,
Migraine patients. But as well as suffering from inflammation of the sinuses or suffering from a severe cold, cough or cold; In their case, the incidence of migraine pain gradually increases.

Thirdly,
When extreme heat and environmental conditions take on a steamy shape, Then migraine patient The incidence of headache gradually increases. On the other hand, in winter, if the cold air is more or foggy conditions prevail, the incidence increases.

 

Types of migraines.

Migraines are generally of three types. E.g.

A) migraine with aura or classic migraine.

B) Migraine without ara or common migraine.

C) Migraine variance Atypical migraine.

 

Symptoms of migraine.

When a headache starts, it can last for hours, even days. Headache, nausea is the main symptoms of this disease. Symptoms such as excessive yawning, distraction, nausea, etc., may occur even before the onset of headaches. The pain starts from any part of the head. Later it spread all over the head Feelings of pain may form behind the eyes. Sometimes excessive noise and light can increase the pain.

 

What are the symptoms of migraine?

A few hours or a few days before the onset of the headache, 50-60% of migraine sufferers have some mental, neurological, autonomic, and other symptoms. Some suffer from depression, hilarity, drowsiness, over-consciousness, over-enthusiasm or irritability, calm slowness. Some people experience nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, thirst, etc. Sometimes there is an interest in certain foods that are not usually eaten. However, many do not understand these symptoms. Early symptoms are essential for the immediate treatment of migraines.


What are the symptoms after a migraine?

In the later stages of migraine headaches, the patient usually becomes tired as if a massive, massive amount of physical exertion has been disturbed. In addition, at this time, he can not think of anything. Nausea, loss of appetite, body aches, etc., may last for a day or two. However, these are not so severe that treatment is not needed.
