Migraine is moderate-to-severe, one-sided, throbbing, lasting 4–72 hours, often with nausea and light/sound sensitivity. An aura (visual disturbance) precedes migraine in ~30% of patients.
Seek emergency care for: sudden thunderclap headache, headache with fever and neck stiffness, headache with weakness or vision loss, or headache after head trauma.
Chronic migraine is defined as ≥15 headache days per month for >3 months. It requires preventive treatment — often botulinum toxin injections every 3 months.
Yes. Botulinum toxin (Botox) injected every 3 months at multiple head/neck sites is approved for chronic migraine and reduces headache days by ~50% in most patients.
