Classic migraine

Study Shows About 1 in 4 people with migraine have classical migraine. The symptoms are the same as those described above (migraine without aura), but also include a warning sign (an aura) before the headache begins.

Visual aura is the most common type of aura. Examples include a temporary loss of part of the vision, flashes of light, objects that may seem to rotate, shake, or boil. Numbness and pins and needles are the second most common type of aura. Numbness usually starts in the hand, travels up the arm, then involves the face, lips, and tongue. The leg is sometimes involved. Problems with speech are the third most common type of aura. Other types of aura include an odd smell, food cravings, a feeling of well-being, other odd sensations.

One of the above auras may develop, or several may occur one after each other. Each aura usually lasts just a few minutes before going, but can last up to 60 minutes. The aura usually goes before the headache begins. The headache usually develops within 60 minutes of the end of the aura, but it may develop a lot sooner than that – often straight afterward.

The cause for migraines is not clear. It was believed blood vessels in parts of the brain become narrower (go into spasm) which accounted for the aura. The blood vessels were then thought to open wide (dilate) soon afterward, which accounted for the headache. It is now thought that some chemicals in the brain increase in activity and parts of the brain may then send out confusing signals which cause the symptoms. Understanding the Causes is very important in these cases, it helps to decide the line of treatment and gives good results for this.
