So What is a Migraine
and How Does it Differ From Tension Headaches?
Tension headaches are usually described as a continuous pressure pain or tightness of varying severity over the entire head, whereas migraine headaches are a severe, throbbing pain over one or both temples, or behind one eye or ear, and are often accompanied by nausea and vomiting.
A migraine often starts on waking up in the morning, but can occur later in the day and can last hours to one or two days.
In individuals with a form of migraine called classic migraine, visual symptoms described as blurriness, dazzling zigzag lines, blind spots or sensitivity to light occur just before and sometimes during the headache.
While fatigue and stress can sometimes bring on both tension and migraine headaches, bright lights, noise and alcohol are specific factors that can trigger a migraine.
