\r\n What Is a Migraine? <\/h1>\r\n \r\n
\r\n

Migraine is a common and chronic form of headache, a complex neurological disorder<\/strong> that differs from a simple headache through its intensity and the diversity of its symptoms. An attack typically lasts between 4 and 72 hours<\/strong> and can range from moderate to severe. Approximately one-third of sufferers experience an aura<\/strong> before the headache, which manifests as visual, sensory, or speech\/motor disturbances.<\/p>\n

What Happens in the Brain:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Migraine results from abnormal neuronal excitability<\/strong>\u2014a “storm in the brain.” Contrary to popular belief, the pain is not caused by blood vessel dilation but by neurogenic inflammation<\/strong> around the nerves and blood vessels of the meninges, triggered by nervous system activity.<\/p>\n

Who Is Affected?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Migraines affect 10\u201315% of the global adult population<\/strong>, including about 1.3 million Quebecers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Good to know:<\/strong> Migraines are three times more common in women<\/strong> than in men, with the gap widening after puberty. They usually appear during adolescence\u201490% of cases begin before the age of 40, often during the peak working years.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n \n\n\n
