What can be done to prevent migraine headaches?

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Avoid triggers: Migraines are often triggered by various things such as certain foods or smells, allergies, medications, etc. Identifying and avoiding triggers is the best prevention. Alternatively, there are a number of medications available from your primary doctor that can help prevent migraines.

Cut triggers &Trtmnt: Try to kkeep a diary of *everything* you do, eat, go & a diary of headaches (when they start, where they are, how long they last, where you were) hopefully, you'll find a pattern. You can also look into "cryotron" treatment with cold which prevents migraines from coming back in many cases.
