Symptoms of Migraine
The term “migraine” is often
used as a blanket term that refers to
several types of headaches. Some individuals
experience a visual aura before a migraine
attack. These visual auras are described
as bright shimmering lights around objects
or at the edges of the field of vision,
zigzag lines, wavy images, or hallucinations.
Some people experience a blackout and
temporary vision loss. However, in most
cases, migraine attacks do not involve
the appearance of an aura. The typical
symptoms of migraine attacks are persistent
and severe headaches that last from
between four to 72 hours, unilateral
headaches (affecting one side of the
head at a time), throbbing or pulsating
pain, intensification of headaches upon
performing any routine activity, nausea
and/or vomiting, sensitivity to light
and sound, and tingling sensation in
the body.
Natural Cures
To alleviate a migraine attack, the
patient should be immediately moved
to a quiet and dark room. Then, the
breathing pattern should be regularized
because migraine often causes anxiety
and hyperventilation. Try some of the
following natural cures that aid in
treating migraines:
Honey, lemon, and ginger
Honey,
lemon, and ginger have remarkable medicinal
properties. Prepare soothing lemon,
ginger, and honey tea by mixing the
juice of one half of a lemon, two teaspoons
of honey, and expressed juice of a small
chunk of fresh ginger root in one cup
of hot water. Alternatively, dissolve
two teaspoons of honey in one half of
a glass of warm water. Repeat in 20
minutes if the migraine persists.
Lavender
There
are numerous benefits of lavender. This
aromatic herb is used for treating a
wide range of ailments including insomnia,
anxiety, depression, and mood disturbances.
It can also be used for treating migraines.
Apply a single drop of pure, undiluted
lavender oil on each temple or behind
each ear. Additionally, place two to
three drops of undiluted lavender oil
on the pillow where the head will rest.
Omega-3
fatty acids
Omega-3
fatty acids possess excellent anti-inflammatory
properties and are particularly effective
in reducing the inflammation of the
nerves and arteries in the brain, which
greatly lessens the severity of a migraine
attack. Consume more “healthy”
fats in your diet such as olive oil,
flaxseed oil, and oily fish like mackerel,
sardines, and halibut to obtain the
recommended quantity of omega-3 fatty
acids.
