Once in a while, we all get a headache. And 70% of the time, it’s caused by stress and tension. Most people will pop a painkiller and hope the pain goes away quickly. But for migraine sufferers, the throbbing pain – usually on one side of the head, but often, on both sides – can be debilitating.
Migraine is a chronic neurological disease that causes recurrent attacks of head pain that is often associated with nausea and vomiting, as well as sensitivity to light and sound. For relief, many seek solitude in quiet, darkened rooms, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the pain will go away.
