Headache is a highly common problem which is encountered by the majority of individuals, at various stages of their lives and for which an effective solution is sought. Migraine is another term used to describe a very severe form of headache. Migraine is a painful condition commonly suffered by both male and female populations in the world.
Factors of influence
The disease characterized with symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and hypersensitivity to light and sound does not only render the patient completely incapable during exacerbation, but also reduces the quality of life during the period between the episodes. While the exact cause of a migraine episode is unknown, the disease in individuals with migraine is triggered by various factors.
The triggering factors include stress and post stress relaxation, hormonal changes, dietary factors, sleep deprivation or excessive sleep, strong light, climatic changes and some personal habits.

Onset of migraine is common between the 16 – 35 years of age. The disease becomes less common around the age 50. Women are more prone than men. Migraine should be diagnosed by a specialist physician.
