Migraine pain can be deeply debilitating. Females are three times more prone than males to suffer from it.
In recent years, scientists found out a lot about managing migraines but despite that fact there is still no known cure.
There are numerous medications available now. They are to mitigate migraine pain or prevent these terrible headaches. We can get them from over-the-counter and by prescription.
If you suffer from migraines, you should use techniques recommended by Mayo Clinic Women’s HealthSource. Here they are:
- When migraine attacks you, do some progressive muscle relaxation, yoga or meditation, biofeedback, or take hot baths. Every day do something to ease stress.
- If you have migraines, get used to having good healthy habits! Get enough sleep, exercise regularly, consume healthy food, avoid caffeine and obviously don’t smoke.
- Try to size up estrogen’s effects on your migraines. If you think that estrogen may cause migraine, talk to your doctor. Stopping or changing oral contraceptives or hormone therapy may help.
- Write a migraine diary. Take note of times, duration and intensity of your migraines. Put notes of what you have eaten as well as of any unusual stresses. Give details if any medications gave you migraine relief. You may discover your migraine pattern over time.
