Discomfort in the neck
Stiffness or discomfort in the neck and shoulders is a very common symptom of migraine, according to a study published in the journal Diagnostics.
Change of taste
Changes in appetite are one of the symptoms of migraines, which can include a sudden craving for sweets or a loss of interest in food. One in four migraines are accompanied by food cravings, according to a study published in the journal Frontiers in Neurology.
Increased sensitivity to light and sound
Increased sensitivity to light and sound is a hallmark of migraine symptoms. Bright sunlight or loud noises can be extremely distressing.
Frequent urination
Migraines are often linked to changes in hormone levels. These hormonal fluctuations can affect the fluid balance in the body, leading to increased urination.
