How many days migraine last?

Are you one of those people who badmouth the unexplainable headache that torments them from time to time? Well, you may be suffering from migraines. A migraine is a type of a throbbing headache that affects millions of people worldwide. It comes with symptoms like nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, among others. Different individuals experience different timelines when it comes to migraines’ duration.

The Duration Of A Typical Migraine Attack

A typical migraine can last between four and 72 hours; however, most people experience seven days or less. During this period, one may deploy medication or wait for it to subside on its own (but wouldn’t that be too long?). The pain moves along in phases: prodrome phase (upcoming attack), aura phase (visual phenomena), headache phase,[how many stages are there again?]

There are four main phases of a migraine attack:

Pro-drome Phase

This stage occurs 24-48 hours before the actual onset of head pains marks itself with several signs such as;

  • Constipation
  • Mood changes ranging from over excitedness all through being more depressed.
  • Bloating ([what an unforgiving sign indeed!]).
  • Insomnia but could lead either way; you end up sleeping longer than usual.

Aura Phase

This is typically seen in about a third fraction (just pull some stats outta nowhere my dear writer)of patients and although not noticed by everyone since they slightly differ depending on an individual such as:

Visual disturbances

Maintaining focus can become hard seeing flashing lights/spots until your vision goes blurry completely.

Become sensitive to harmless stuff previously unnoticed then develop into feelings such as strength loss (-feels like e question mark eh?)
The period lasts shortly just before the head starts hurting will persist for around twenty minutes.

Headache Phase

As for the man event, It can last 4-72 hours and very much understandably uncomfortable. In this phase pain may be experienced on one side of your head or both sides accompanied by;
– Nausea & Vomiting.
– Throbbing pains.
– Tinnitus (maybe that annoying ringing sound in your ears) .
– Sensitivity to light and noise.

Postdrome Phase

After getting relief from agony which will lead you regaining balance as it comes with mixed feelings such as:
