Migraines
The good thing about
a migraine is that it is transient, that is the pain will go
away after sometime. This usually happens after the person gets
a few hours of sound sleep. But the worst thing about migraines
is that they recur. But migraines too can be prevented to a
very large extent as the tips below explain.
There are two main
types of migraine, the classic migraine and the common
migraine. Both the classic and the common kind can occur as
often as several times a week or as rarely as once every few
years.
Both types can occur
at any time. But for some people at least, it is possible to
predict the occurrence of the migraine. For example there is a
greater tendency for a migraine near the days of menstruation
or every Saturday morning after a stressful week of
work.
Although many
sufferers have a family history of migraine, the exact
hereditary nature of this condition is not known. People who
get migraines are thought to have an inherited abnormality in
the regulation of blood vessels. The following factors often
act as triggers that set of the migraine.
Stress is one of the
major factors that can contribute to the onset of a migraine.
Now it may not be possible for you to get away from the cause
of stress, particularly if it is something connected with your
job.
Anger can trigger of
a migraine as well. It would be good for short tempered people
to learn ways of controlling their anger. The best method is of
course the one to ten method. The next time you get angry count
to ten very slowly before you really blow your lid. By the time
you get to ten you should have cooled down.
Both physical and
mental fatigue can lead to a migraine so do not push your self
too much. Enough is enough and when your body starts giving you
signals that it has had enough, take heed and stop whatever you
are doing. Just bear in mind that a little more productivity on
one day is not worth the productivity of the next couple of
days.
