Approximately 39 million people, 10% of the population, in the US suffer from migraines. That’s a lot of people who suffer from severe pain. Although recent research suggests that migraines aren't classified as a disease, the pain and other symptoms are intense and can significantly disrupt a sufferer's daily life.
Many people tend to discount migraine pain as just another headache. People don’t really understand the complexity of the condition, thus making sufferers feel like their migraines are not something they should worry about. Many doctors often prescribe seizure or antidepressant medicines for migraines that don’t solve the problem. OTC medicines don’t even provide temporarily pain relief and nothing currently given for migraines provide long term solution.
It’s common that people won’t seek medical attention because of the stigma attached to migraines as “a mental condition”. Research shows that migraines are genetic and that migraineurs have a different brain from the brain of people without migraines. The brain becomes more complex thus creating more brain cell receptor connections that in return create heightened sensitivities to scents, light, sounds, touch, and taste.
People who don’t suffer from migraines cannot relate to migraines, hence the stigma that it’s just a headache. Don’t let anything stop you from researching and learning about migraines. There are many steps you can take towards understanding what triggers your migraines and how to prevent them or stop them in their tracks. Research find that the most common cause of migraine is electrolyte imbalance. Many migraines can be prevented by resetting electrolyte homeostasis. At Health by Principle you will find resources that can help you maintain electrolyte homeostasis.
