Headaches are often confused with migraines, but they are different. A migraine is an extremely painful headache that can lead to serious consequences if left untreated. Some migraines are noticeable due to symptoms, but some are silent migraines that can be serious.
Migraine is a very common type of headache that patients present to the neurology department, and among these conditions, migraine is a very common form of headache that leads to significant disability and absenteeism from work.
In some cases, people develop migraine attacks that do not necessarily cause pain. These are called “silent migraines.” The onset of migraines occurs in the twenties and thirties, and is more common in adults.
Although silent migraine is easy to recognize in light of a previous history of migraine attacks, any change in the nature of the condition should raise suspicion of diseases other than silent migraine, such as stroke or seizures.
A study published in the Journal of Headache and Pain found that for every man who suffers from migraines, three women suffer from severe headaches. It was also found that 18-25% of women around the world suffer from migraines, making it one of the most common and debilitating diseases in women.
Treatment of silent migraines
Treatment for silent migraines is not much different from treatment for regular migraines. They are treated with painkillers like paracetamol, naproxen, etc. If you suffer from frequent silent migraines that affect your quality of life, you will be prescribed ongoing preventive medication.
