Many people in the United States suffer from migraines. A migraine is not just a regular headache. It is a throbbing pain commonly on one side of the head and more painful than a headache. Migraines can last up to hours or even days. Migraines can be triggered by light, strong odors, and sound as well as certain foods. Stress and anxiety are also common triggers of a migraine. Migraines also come with a variety of symptoms such as dizziness, vomiting, and nausea. There is no cure for migraines but there are a variety of ways a person can treat their pain. One of the most common ways to relieve migraine pain is the use of pain relieving pills. There are two types of pills that are available to individuals: prescribed pills and over the counter pills. There are other ways to treat a migraine such as acupuncture, homeopathy, massage practice, and other natural alternatives.
