A migraine is a primary headache disorder characterized by recurrent headaches that are moderate to severe.

Typically, episodes affect one side of the head, are pulsating in nature, and last from a few hours to three days. Associated symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light, sound, or smell.

The pain is generally made worse by physical activity, although regular exercise may have prophylactic effects. Up to one-third of people affected have aura: typically a short period of visual disturbance that signals that the headache will soon occur.

Occasionally, aura can occur with little or no headache following, but not everyone has this symptom.

Globally, approximately 15% of people are affected by migraine.

In the Global Burden of Disease Study of 2010, it was ranked as the third most prevalent disorder in the world.

It most often starts at puberty and is worst during middle age.

Signs and Symptoms

The severity of the pain, duration of the headache, and frequency of attacks are variable. A migraine lasting longer than 72 hours is termed status migrainosus. There are four possible phases to a migraine, although not all the phases are necessarily experienced:

• The prodrome, which occurs hours or days before the headache
• The aura, which immediately precedes the headache
• The pain phase, also known as headache phase
• The postdrome, the effects experienced following the end of a migraine attack
