What is Migraine?
Migraine is a neurological condition that causes recurring headaches, often accompanied by symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light or sound.
Unlike an ordinary headache, migraine attacks can significantly affect your work, sleep, concentration, and everyday activities. Some people may also experience migraine aura, including temporary visual disturbances, tingling, numbness, or difficulty speaking.
At Alavi Hospitals, our neurology team evaluates your symptoms, headache pattern, possible triggers, and medical history to develop a personalized migraine treatment plan.
Why Does Migraine Occur?
Migraine can be influenced by genetic, neurological, hormonal, and environmental factors. Identifying your individual triggers is an important part of effective migraine management.
Genetic Factors
A family history of migraine can increase your likelihood of experiencing recurrent migraine attacks.
Stress & Anxiety
Emotional stress, anxiety, and mental strain may trigger or worsen migraine symptoms.
Sleep Changes
Insufficient sleep, excessive sleep, or irregular sleeping patterns can contribute to migraine attacks.
Skipping Meals
Going long periods without food or following irregular meal patterns may trigger migraine in some people.
Common Signs & Symptoms
Migraine can cause one or more of the following symptoms:
- Throbbing or pulsating headache
- Pain on one or both sides of the head
- Nausea or vomiting
- Sensitivity to bright light
- Sensitivity to loud sounds
- Dizziness or light-headedness
- Blurred or disturbed vision
- Tingling or numbness
How is Migraine Diagnosed at Alavi Hospitals?
Our neurologists conduct a detailed evaluation to understand your headache pattern, identify possible triggers, and determine whether your symptoms are consistent with migraine or another type of headache.
Medical History
Your doctor reviews the frequency, duration, intensity, location, associated symptoms, medications, and family history of headaches.
Neurological Examination
A neurological examination helps assess your reflexes, coordination, sensation, vision, and other neurological functions.
Headache Pattern Assessment
Your symptoms are evaluated based on when headaches occur, how long they last, what triggers them, and how they affect your daily activities.
Trigger Identification
Common triggers such as stress, sleep changes, skipped meals, hormonal changes, bright lights, and certain environmental factors may be assessed.
Diagnostic Tests When Required
Imaging or other investigations may be recommended when symptoms are unusual, severe, sudden, or when another underlying condition needs to be ruled out.
Personalized Diagnosis
Based on your evaluation, our neurologists develop a treatment and migraine management plan suited to your individual condition.
