One could spend every hour of their day trying to avoid the triggers that cause migraines and try hard to eliminate the common risk factors that increase one’s chances of developing intense migraine pain, but none of these is 100% effective in preventing a migraine from creeping in and causing pain and frustration. There are several approaches one suffering with intense migraine pain may take in hopes of lessening the duration and intensity level of a migraine. Migraine prevention is by trial and error and the first several prevention methods may or may not work, the important thing is to keep searching and testing out various therapies until something clicks and works. For those looking for a safer more natural approach to treating migraine headaches pay close attention to the following bullet points.
• Prescription Meds…like Triptans
• Chiropractic Manipulation
• Physiotherapy
• Massage Therapy
• Acupuncture
• Migraine Support Formula
Pill Promoting Physicians
Doctors will not go around prescribing triptans for everyone complaining that they suffer from migraines. Triptans are typically only prescribed to migraine sufferers that experience moderate to severe migraine pain and even then other forms of migraine treatment will be discussed and ruled out before a doctor will recommend or suggest a triptan. The most common side effects associated with triptans are but not limited to:
• Drowsiness
• Facial Reddening
• Fatigue
• Tightening In The Chest
• Tightening In The Throat
• Dizziness
The role Triptans play in releasing migraine pain is due to the affect triptans have on the restriction of blood vessels or the narrowing of them to prevent them from enlarging and creating migraine pain. Though narrowing is part of their job, it can also have a reverse effect by not only narrowing the arteries in the head but also create a narrowing of the arteries in the heart. This becomes increasingly dangerous for those individuals that have already experienced some form of coronary narrowing. The narrowing caused by the triptans could lead to further narrowing resulting in a heart attack or stroke.
It is always recommended that you consult with your primary care physician to determine the best option for you. This is because Triptans may not be physically compatible with your body type and could cause some of the above side effects. Be wise and choose a safe method
