What Makes a Headache and Migraine?
Almost everyone gets headaches. You might feel throbbing in the front of
your head during a cold or bout with the flu, for example. Or you might feel
pain in your temples or at the back of your head from a tension headache
after a busy day. Most regular headaches produce a dull pain around the
front, top, and sides of your head, almost like someone stretched a rubber
band around it.
A migraine is different. Doctors define it as a recurrent headache that has
additional symptoms. The pain is often throbbing and on one or both sides of
the head. People with migraines often feel dizzy or sick to their stomachs.
They may be sensitive to light, noise, or smells. In a few people, migraines
can also cause auras, such as seeing spots or halos, just before actually
getting the headache. Migraines can be disabling, and teens with migraines
often need to skip school, sports, work, or other activities until they feel
better.
If you have migraines, you are not alone. Experts estimate that up to 10% of
teens and young adults in the United States get migraines. Before age 10, an
equal number of boys and girls get migraines. But after age 12, during and
after puberty, migraines affect girls three times more often than boys.
