Migraine - the ins and outs
Migraine is a complex condition which is triggered by different
things in different people. Additionally, the actual symptoms
suffered by different people are usually fairly unique to them
too.
Migraine is commonly described by people as a special kind of
recurring headache where the headache is severe and usually
linked to other symptoms such as feeling sick (nausea), being
sick (vomiting), eyesight changes such as blank spots, coloured
sport, sparkles, stars or blurred patches in their vision,
dizziness, sensitivity to light and noise, lethargy and fatigue.
The changes in vision usually come before the headache itself
and are referred to as the "aura". Two generalised
classifications of migraine are "with aura" and "without aura".
Other classifications are "basilar migraine" and "familial
hemiplegic migraine" where reversible paralysis occurs.

Susceptibility to migraine is thought to be genetic, with the
predisposition being inherited through particular genes.
However, any person of any age, gender, ethnicity can get
migraine... it is one of the most common of all painful chronic
conditions. Typically, a migraine attack breaks down into
several phases... 1: Pre-headache, 2: Aura (only 15% of people
report this phase), 3: Headache, 4: Resolution, 5: Recovery.
Usually the recovery phase can last for several hours or days
and feels like a hangover.

Our Readers' Questions
Ive had a migraine for a week, whats the best migraine relief?
good_morning_sunshine asked on Wed, 03 Oct, 2007
I have had surgery on my jaw to correct TMJ, so my jaw is supposed to be in good shape but the left side has been bothering me quite a bit recently, and im goin to the dr next week about it. I also have neck pain along with my migraines and Im hoping its all connected to my jaw....but i need some relief until i go to the dr.
I have tried: excedrin migraine, vicks chest rub on my forehead, cool towel, quiet dark room, sleeping etc. But i just wake up with a migraine. Ive had one for about a week now.
Well i was just at my general dr last week and she checked my sinuses and all was fine. Also all my blood work was perfect, so Im assuming it is all connected to my jaw. If I go gt help now, won't they just give be rx meds and send me on my way?

Prescription drugs like Imitrex or Maxalt.

if you wake up with it every morning there could be a number of things. you might "grind "your teeth, and a simple mouthpiece would help. you could also be allergic to something in your bedroom, dust mites, pillows, sheets, plants, a pet that sleeps in your room, mold etc. try and antihistamine and an air purifier.
speak to your dr about migraine abortive medications (imitrex zomig maxalt etc.) they work much better than anything over the counter.
if you are diagnosed with true migraines and suffer from them chronically there are also preventatives you can take on a routine basis to help keep them at bay (i have been on these for 9 years).

The drugs have made liver fire excessive and it made the Gall Bladder Meridian excessive; your pain is along its' pathway.
There is no medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic.
Acidity, WORRY, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation; drugs,
Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy are their causes. None of them can be treated with medicine. Our 100% success in treating migraine &H/A confirms it.
Pain killers don't treat the pain but we loose the sense of pain for some time; in that duration our body itself treats sometime and credit goes to meds.
Acupuncture is the best treatment. I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see.
Avoid drugs & late sleeping if possible; worry, spicy foods, sour fruits, stale bakery foods and alcohole.
Sweet foods, COCOANUT WATER,sweet fruits, milk, rice, SPROUTS, SALADS and good sleep will help you.
But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it is very strong.
If it is acute pl search a painful point 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds.

Go to urgent care now and get this checked out. It could be a sinus infection and not a migraine. If it is a migraine they can give you medicine specifically for migraines to get rid of it. No matter what you need to go to urgent care as a week is to long to let a headache of any kind go unchecked and untreated. Get off the computer and go get it checked out tonight.

If you have repeatedly taken excedrin migraine, you may be causing something called rebound headaches.
Try a warm bath and put warm moist heat on the muscles of the cheeks by the ears, under the jaw and behind the neck and base of the skull. If it is related to these muscles, the warm heat will force the muscles to relax and help. Plus, when you are in pain, you tend to tense those muscles and make a bad migraine worse.
warm moist heat: one of those heating pads you throw in the microwave with the azuki beans or rice in them will emit that kindof heat; or just use a heating pad; or one of those rubber water containers you can put really warm water in.
Consider going to urgent care or the ER if you have insurance. Your copay might be 100 bucks (or more) but it might be worth it, right? They'll give you a shot and you'll be allright.
Oh and she's right about the orgasm.
Good luck, I feel for you.

Theres no doubt that a migraine is the worst kind of headache that you can suffer from.. The throbbing pain is usually accompanied by feelings of nausea and disorientation..
