Migraine triggers can often be about what you avoid rather than what you do. Here are some of the most common triggers to watch out for. Always consult your physician before altering your diet or trying new methods to relieve migraine headaches.
1. Food
Pay attention to what and when you eat. Food is a major migraine trigger. Many migraines are triggered by certain foods and additives. Be cautious with aged cheeses, chocolate, lunchmeats, and hot dogs containing nitrates, as well as foods high in MSG. A buildup of nitric oxide in the bloodstream can also lead to migraines.
2. Excessive Caffeine
High doses of caffeine can be a significant migraine trigger. Consuming more than 6-8 ounces of caffeinated beverages might be excessive for migraine sufferers. If caffeine triggers your migraines, it's best to avoid it.
3. Smoke
Both direct and secondhand cigarette smoke are top migraine triggers. It's advisable to avoid smoke whenever possible.
4. Visual Stimulation
Sudden changes between light and dark or exposure to bright lights can trigger migraines. Ensure that the lighting around TV and computer monitors isn’t too harsh to help prevent headaches.
5. High Stress Levels
Stress greatly contributes to migraines. While avoiding stress entirely is impractical, it's important to find ways to manage and reduce it.
6. Overuse of Painkillers
If the recommended dose of painkillers doesn’t relieve your migraines, don’t increase it. Using more than advised can result in rebound headaches and other complications. Consult your doctor frequently and report if medications aren't effective.
7. Irregular Schedules
Maintaining regular sleep patterns is key in fighting migraines. Going to bed and waking up at the same time every day can be very beneficial.
8. Lack of Exercise
Exercise can help mitigate migraines, as physical fitness is known to prevent them. However, warm up before exercising to avoid a buildup of nitric oxide, which can trigger an attack.
9. Poor Communication with Your Doctor
Keep your physician informed about your migraines by maintaining open communication. A diary or journal can help you track when attacks occur, their triggers, and which medications or remedies are effective. Sharing this information with your doctor can help tailor your treatment plan.
By keeping a detailed diary, you can better identify what works and what doesn’t, enabling your doctor to adjust your treatment approach for maximum relief.
