WEDNESDAY, Sept. 11 (HealthDay News) -- Obese people may be at higher risk
for episodic migraines, a new study suggests.
.
Episodic migraines -- the more common type of migraine -- occur 14 days or
fewer per month, while chronic migraines occur at least 15 days per month.
.
Migraines involve intense pulsing or throbbing pain in one area of the
head, according to the American Academy of Neurology. Symptoms can include
nausea, vomiting and sensitivity to light and sound. Migraines affect more
than 10 percent of the population.
.
In the study of more than 3,800 adults, those with a high body-mass index
(BMI) -- a measure of body fat determined using height and weight -- were
81 percent more likely to have episodic migraines than those with a lower
BMI. This was particularly true among women, whites and those under the
age of 50.
.
The cross-sectional study doesn't prove that obesity causes episodic
migraines, but it does demonstrate that people who are obese have an
increased risk of having more of them, even low-frequency ones, said lead
author Dr. Barbara Lee Peterlin, director of headache research at Johns
Hopkins University School of Medicine, in Baltimore.
