Migraine prevention and remedies

The causes of migraine headaches are unknown. There are a number of preventive measures that people can take to stave off many of these debilitating headaches. Remedies include anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen, prescriptions like triptans, and avoiding certain foods.

The exact causes of migraine headaches -- vascular headaches associated with changes in the size of arteries within and outside the brain -- are unknown. People with migraines may inherit the tendency to be affected by migraine triggers, including fatigue, weather changes and bright lights.
