1 Pediatric Migraine What is a migraine? More than 10 million children between the ages of 5 and 17 have chronic headaches. A migraine is a type of chronic headache. Patients with migraines may also have throbbing pain, an upset stomach and vomiting. Patients may also have changes in vision such as blurring or seeing flashing lights, as well as being sensitive to light or sound. Migraines may be caused by a combination of changes in the blood vessels, brain chemicals and nerves. Migraines may keep you from normal activities like work or school. What triggers, or causes, a migraine? Migraine triggers include environmental factors (dust, plants, smells, lights) or diet (what you eat). t every patient can name a certain trigger for their migraine. Below is a list of some common triggers: Cheese Weather changes Dairy Stress Citrus fruit (lemons, oranges, grapefruit) Exertion (doing to much) Chocolate Too much or not enough sleep Caffeine (soda, pop, coffee, tea) Menstruation (having your period) Sourdough bread and pizza Monosodium Glutamate Hotdogs, salami, bologna Skipping meals What can I do to prevent or lessen a migraine? The following are things that can prevent or lessen a migraine: Regular exercise Sleep Watching what you eat Identifying and staying away from known triggers Medication and non-medication methods such as physical therapy, counseling, and biofeedback What medications are there to help treat a migraine? Medications are not always helpful. There are two types of medications that are used to manage migraines: Preventative medications - medications that are taken every day to keep a migraine from starting over X10886 ( 2/10) Front Pediatric Neurology Approved for distribution by Spectrum Health Patient Education Council

2 Abortive medications - medications that are used to stop a migraine after it has started Your doctor or nurse practitioner will tell you which preventative and abortive agents are best for you. What information does my doctor need to know about my migraines? Your doctor or nurse practitioner will ask you to keep a headache diary. This diary will help them know what type of headaches you may be having. It can also help you spot triggers that cause your migraines, and show the number of times you have a migraine. If you did not get a diary during your visit, please ask for one. If you would like more information about headaches we recommend that you visit our website: choose the Health Information A-Z tab. This handout does not take the place of a discussion with your doctor. Discuss any questions or concerns you may have with your doctor.
