Dear Deena Both the fever and migraine can cause the headache. In migraine the headache is usually located on one side and generally is followed by vomiting and relief in pain. There is no permanent cure for the migraine although some medicines like Sybalium can control the attacks. Thanks Dr J S Chowhan |

Dear Deena Migraine is a very common type of headache and millions of people all over World is affected by the migraine that may occur with symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, or sensitivity to light. In many people who are affected by this disease, a severe throbbing pain is felt only on one side of the head. Some people who get migraines have warning symptoms, called an aura, before the actual headache begins. You should consult a neurologist to rule out some other differential diagnosis. Many people with severe migraines are treated with one of a class of migraine-specific drugs called triptans. A number of different triptans are now available all over world. Almotriptan, eletriptan, frovatriptan, naratriptan, rizatriptan, sumatriptan and zolmitriptan all work in the same way, but the different characteristics of each drug will suit different people. Triptans can be taken as pills, as quick-dissolving tablets, as a nasal spray, or as an injection. On average, patients who take triptans by mouth get relief from the symptoms of migraine in around half an hour. You should contact with your doctor and he will be able to talk to you about your specific needs, and the best way to take your medication. |
