Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Migraine, also called migraine syndrome, is a neurological disorder that causes recurrent headaches, usually throbbing and one-sided, accompanied by other symptoms that can affect daily activity.
Common symptoms:
- throbbing headache of considerable intensity
- nausea or vomiting
- discomfort from light and noise
- in some cases, visual disturbances before the pain
Possible triggers: lack of sleep, stress, prolonged fasting, certain foods, or hormonal changes.
Who should you see? The general practitioner can provide initial guidance and refer you to the neurology specialist when necessary. If the episodes recur or limit your activities, it is worth having a professional evaluate it to better understand the pattern.
