The treatment and prevention of migraine, which affects five to ten percent of the population, depends on recognizing its protean manifestations. Different types-including classic, common, complicated, basilar artery and others-may at times simulate disorders such as epilepsy and transient ischemic attacks. Migraine submerged in a sea of muscle contraction or tension headaches may escape detection and thus treatment. A knowledge of provoking factors may alleviate the need for medication at times. Adequate and appropriate application of drug therapy in a logical sequence can provide considerable success in taming this disorder. Failure to recognize this disorder condemns patients to years of periodic misery.
偏头痛的治疗和预防，影响到 5%到 10%的人口，取决于对其多样表现的识别。不同类型——包括经典型、普通型、复杂型、基底动脉型等——有时可能模拟癫痫和短暂性脑缺血发作等疾病。偏头痛可能会淹没在肌肉收缩或紧张性头痛的海洋中而无法被发现和治疗。了解诱发因素有时可以减轻对药物治疗的需求。在合理的顺序中充分和适当应用药物治疗可以在很大程度上成功控制这种疾病。未能识别这种疾病会使患者遭受多年周期性的痛苦。
