Migraine is more than just a headache; it is a complex, poorly understood neurovascular condition. Due to the pathological mechanisms connecting cortical depolatization, brainstem dysfunction, meningeal vasodilatation, and activation of sensory pain areas as distant as the cervical nucleus caudalis, it manifests with a wide range of symptoms. Patients typically employ over-the-counter drugs such triptans, compound analgesics, or ergot derivatives in the treatment of migraines. Patients with headaches are a typical complaint among doctors. Therefore, a definite diagnosis of migraine can be achieved swiftly and securely when the patient is approached logically. We have made an effort to describe the less well-understood features of this condition in this chapter, including its pathogenesis, management, and most recent developments in terms of treatment.
