Possibly: All migraines are incited by some trigger, but of course, it is hard to figure out what might trigger many events. That said, some of these events emanate from occult thoracic outlet syndrome, a problem next to neck into shoulder, and problems with jaw and dental issues, scalp and skull problems may trigger migraine events. Might behoove you to get a full neurological exam.
