Know all about Migraine

Migraine is more than just a headache — it’s a neurological condition. While intense headaches are the main feature of migraine attacks, there are also many other symptoms that can occur. One of these symptoms is aura.

An aura is a set of symptoms that can occur before or during a migraine episode. It can cause problems with vision, sensation, or speech, and usually lasts about 20 to 60 minutes.

The American Migraine Foundation estimates that about 25 to 30 percent of people with migraine experience aura. It can be a warning sign that a migraine attack is coming, or it can happen during an attack. It doesn’t happen with every migraine episode.

Knowing more about migraine auras can help you identify one as soon as possible, take any medications, and prepare for the migraine attack.
