How do you know if your morning headache is a migraine?
There are some symptoms that make migraine distinct from other kinds of headache conditions. To tell the difference between a migraine attack and a headache, ask yourself these questions:
- Does my head pain last more than 4 hours?
- Is the pain distracting, pulsing, or throbbing?
- Am I experiencing additional symptoms, such as dizziness, flashing lights, or nausea?
If you answered yes to these three questions, it’s likely you’re experiencing a morning migraine attack. Your doctor can give you an official diagnosis using a CT scan or MRI.
