Almost everyone gets headaches one day or other. One may feel throbbing in the front of the head during a cold
or bout with the flu, for example. Or one may feel pain in his/her temples or at the back of the head from a
tension after a busy day. Most regular headaches produce a dull pain around the front, top, and sides of one’s
head, almost like someone stretched a rubber band around it.
A migraine is different. It is defined 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. Migraines can be disabling, and teens with migraines often need
to skip school, sports, work, or other activities until they feel better. In general, symptoms of a migraine attack
include:
• moderate to severe, throbbing head pain
• most commonly one-sided pain; less frequently both sides of the head are affected
• pain located near the eye on affected side
• pain that worsens with physical activity
• sensitivity to light and/or sound
• nausea or severe vomiting
• debilitating pain that hinders daily activities
If you have migraines, you are not alone. It is estimated 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.

temporary relief but no permanent cure. It is also true that western experts say that there is no medicine for
