Risk Factors And Treatments For Migraines

A migraine is defined as a severe, pulsating headache, often associated with autonomic symptoms and typically unilateral (only affecting one of half of the head), usually lasting from four to seventy two hours.  Symptoms can include blurred vision, dizziness, lightheadedness, nausea, vomiting, as well as sensitivity to light and sound. For a person suffering from these severe headaches it is of utmost importance to find migraine treatment. Migraine headaches can happen to anyone; however, there are factors that play a part in increasing the risk of some individuals such as family history, Age, Gender, as well as other medical issues.

Risk Factors

Family history and genetic factors play a large role in those suffering from migraines. Studies have shown up to 90 percent of people with migraines have a family history of them and says that those individuals that come from a family history of migraine sufferers will most likely be at risk of suffering from chronic migraines as well.

Age is another risk factor. During childhood, migraines are less frequent but not nonexistent. Research has shown that most individuals will experience their first migraine during adolescence, by age 40; most people who will suffer from migraines will have had their first attack.

Gender is yet another risk factor. It is a commonly known fact that more migraine suffers tend to be female. Hormonal changes seem to play a very large role in the case of migraines. During childhood or adolescents, the frequencies of migraines between sexes were not that different but a drastic increase in migraine headaches in females become apparent as they neared puberty.

Other medical issues can also be a precursor to a person suffering from migraine attacks. Individuals who are have medical issues such as depression, anxiety, stroke, epilepsy and high blood pressure are more susceptible to migraines than people who have not suffered with any of the listed medical concerns. 

Treatment

If in fact a person might have risk factors towards migraines, it is important to note that there are many migraine treatment options ranging from therapeutic, supplemental, and of course the use of medications (both over the counter and prescription). A person seeking migraine treatment will most certainly need to meet with a physician in order to properly diagnose the underlying causes and discuss any forms of medical action needing to take place. However, it is also important that migraine sufferers are aware of alternative treatments such as biofeedback, stress management, acupuncture, chiropractic care, massage therapy, or herbal remedies. These forms of alternative care are used widely within the world of migraine treatment and have been proven very successful in both the prevention or in the very least the lessoning of symptoms of a migraine.
