    Migraine

    Migraine is  a type of severe headache, causing throbbing, debilitating, and pulsing pain on one side of the head. This condition can last for a few hours, extend to days, and interfere with normal routine. Migraines can progress through four stages: prodrome, aura, attack, and post-drome, although not all individuals go through all phases. At Apollo Hospitals in Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, we adhere to a multidisciplinary approach to treat frequent migraines, ensuring necessary care and support.

    FAQ's

    Migraines progress in four stages. These include:
    • The 'prodrome' phase (1-2 days before migraine): the symptoms include emotional changes, dizziness, thirst, yawning, and light and sound sensitivity.
    • The 'aura' stage: the symptoms may cause blurred vision and sensory issues.
    • The 'attack' phase: This stage of migraine brings severe symptoms like nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light, sound, and smells.
    • The 'postdrome' phase or migraine hangover: It results in symptoms like fatigue, muscle pain, lack of appetite or intense food cravings, and difficulty concentrating.

    Your symptoms, medical history, family history, co-morbidities, and lifestyle are discussed, followed by a physical and neurological examination. If experts feel that the condition is peculiar or severe, imaging scans like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) are performed.

    Neurologists generally treat migraines by prioritising preventive measures in conjunction with lifestyle and dietary changes, vitamins, and medications. These include blood pressure drugs, anti-depressants, triptans, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs), anti-emetics, beta blockers, and so on. Our neurologists at Apollo will prescribe, as well as guide you on taking care of triggers, managing stress, and preventing future episodes of migraine.
