Migraine is characterized by recurrent headaches of moderate-to-severe intensity and poses a significant challenge for medical students. This is a narrative literature review using PubMed and Scopus databases. This study examines how common migraine is in this group and suggests working together to address how it affects students' well-being and chances of succeeding as a medical professional in the future. Early diagnosis by licensed medical specialists is essential for effective management of migraine. To address this, the authors propose a multifaceted strategy. By including direct education on migraines in medical school curricula, future doctors will be better prepared to treat patients with comparable problems and manage their own migraines. Students with migraines can also benefit greatly from creating a supportive learning environment through staff training, accommodating academic policies, and providing easily available healthcare resources. In addition, this technology may be helpful. Apps for relaxation and migraine tracking can help students better manage their condition. Long-term success requires cooperation among all parties. By promoting cooperation among medical schools, student associations, healthcare practitioners, and governmental organizations, the authors can raise public awareness of migraine, make pertinent resources easier to access, and create evidence-based solutions specially designed to meet the needs of medical students who experience migraine. In the end, putting student well-being first and working together to put these solutions into practice can enable aspiring doctors to succeed at both personal and professional levels.
偏头痛的特点是反复发作中度至重度头痛,这对医学生来说是一项重大挑战。这是一项使用PubMed和Scopus数据库的叙述性文献综述。本研究调查了偏头痛在该群体中的普遍程度,并建议共同努力解决其如何影响学生的幸福感以及未来成为医学专业人员的成功机会。获得执照的医学专家进行早期诊断对于有效管理偏头痛至关重要。为解决这一问题,作者提出了一项多方面的策略。通过将偏头痛的直接教育纳入医学院课程,未来的医生将更有准备地治疗有类似问题的患者并管理自己的偏头痛。患有偏头痛的学生还可以通过员工培训、调整学术政策以及提供易于获取的医疗资源来营造一个支持性的学习环境,从而受益匪浅。此外,这项技术可能会有所帮助。用于放松和偏头痛追踪的应用程序可以帮助学生更好地管理自己的病情。长期成功需要各方合作。通过促进医学院校、学生协会、医疗从业者和政府组织之间的合作,作者可以提高公众对偏头痛的认识,使相关资源更容易获取,并创建专门为满足患有偏头痛的医学生需求而设计的循证解决方案。最后,将学生的幸福感放在首位并共同努力将这些解决方案付诸实践,可以使有抱负的医生在个人和职业层面都取得成功。
