| I have headache very often and my friend always said he is having migraine. Actually what is the different between headache and migraine? Is it same? I don’t they are the same but one thing for sure, they are inter connected to each other. To find out this, I go to Wikipedia and do a search on headache and migraine.
Headache
A headache or cephalgia is pain anywhere in the region of the head or neck. It can be a symptom of a number of different conditions of the head and neck
Migraine
The typical migraine headaches are unilateral (affecting one half of the head) and pulsating, lasting from 4 to 72 hours; symptoms include nausea, vomiting, photophobia (increased sensitivity to light), and phonophobia (increased sensitivity to sound). Approximately one-third of people who suffer migraine headache perceive an aura—unusual visual, olfactory, or other sensory experiences that are a sign that the migraine will soon occur.
From the explanation, it is clear that migraine is more serious than headache. It is not good for us to always having these 2 sickness. We need to go for doctors if the symptom continues.
