A migraine is not an ordinary headache. It is an attack that begins inside the brain, and it now has a mechanism we can describe almost step by step. A neurosurgeon walks through the whole sequence: why a migraine brain handles light, sound and smell differently; the threshold that triggers only tip over; the warning phase that starts hours before the pain; why the chocolate craving is the migraine starting rather than the cause of it; what an aura actually is and the slow wave behind it; why brain tissue itself cannot feel pain and the covering can; the trigeminal nerve and CGRP; why the pain is felt behind the eye and down the neck; why the skin of the scalp starts to hurt and why treating early matters so much; the throbbing that does not follow your pulse; and the moment an occasional migraine becomes a daily headache because of the painkiller itself. Then what actually helps, remembered as SEEDS — sleep, exercise, eating, diary and stress — and the headaches that are not migraine at all and need to be seen the same day.
