migraine is a condition that affects millions of Americans. And while the exact cause of migraines is still unknown, we do know that weather can play a role in triggering them.
There are a few different ways that weather can affect migraines. For example, changes in barometric pressure can trigger migraines. This is why many people get migraines during storms or when the weather is changing.
Another way weather can affect migraines is by affecting the body’s temperature. Temperature changes can trigger migraines, so people who are susceptible to them need to be careful in hot or cold weather.
Finally, bright light can also trigger migraines. This is why many people find that they are more prone to migraines in the summer when the days are longer.
If you suffer from migraines, it’s important to be aware of how weather can affect them. This way, you can try to avoid triggers and have a better chance of avoiding a migraine attack.
