Migraines are more than just severe headaches; they are a complex neurological condition that can cause intense, debilitating pain and a range of other symptoms. At Shivanjaani Homoeo Care, we understand the profound impact migraines can have on your quality of life. Dr. Punam Pandey, a leading homeopathic doctor in Kolkata, offers a holistic and individualized approach to treating migraines, focusing on long-term relief and overall well-being.
What is a Migraine?
A migraine is a type of headache characterized by intense, throbbing pain, usually on one side of the head. It can be accompanied by other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. Migraines often occur in phases:
Prodrome: Subtle warning signs, such as mood changes, food cravings, and fatigue, that occur hours or days before the migraine.
Aura: Some people experience sensory disturbances like visual flashes or blind spots, tingling sensations, or difficulty speaking.
Attack: This phase involves severe headache pain, which can last from a few hours to several days.
Postdrome: After the headache subsides, individuals may feel drained and fatigued for up to a day.
Triggers and Causes
Migraines can be triggered by various factors, including:
Hormonal changes: Fluctuations in estrogen levels, particularly in women, can trigger migraines.
Stress: Emotional stress and anxiety are common triggers.
Diet: Certain foods and beverages, such as aged cheese, alcohol, and caffeine, can provoke migraines.
Environmental factors: Changes in weather, strong smells, and bright lights can trigger migraines.
Sleep patterns: Irregular sleep patterns or lack of sleep can contribute to migraines.
