Migraine is more than head pain. It is a neurological disease that can be inherited (passed down) from a parent to a child. Neurological disorders affect the nervous system, which includes the brain and pain fibers from the tissues surrounding the brain. Migraine disrupts the way the brain processes pain, light, sound, and smell. This leads to discomfort from normal input such as sunlight or music. It causes migraine attacks that usually last hours to days. For some people with migraine, the headache can be continuous.
Migraine attacks are usually accompanied by nausea. They can also cause other neurological symptoms such as changes in sight, dizziness, numbness, weakness, and difficulty speaking. For some, these symptoms can be even more disabling than the headache.
