Migraines are debilitating headaches characterized by throbbing pain, often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. They can last for hours to days, significantly disrupting daily activities and productivity. While the exact cause is still not fully understood, triggers such as hormonal changes, stress, certain foods, and environmental factors can precipitate migraine attacks. Treatment typically involves a combination of medications to relieve symptoms and prevent future episodes, along with lifestyle modifications to manage triggers.
