Migraines are frequently undiagnosed and untreated, that may lead to a more serious illness. A person experiencing migraine may track and record their attacks, and may refer to these following signs and symptoms, which may indicate other, more serious medical problems:

An unexpected, severe headache, similar to thunderclap
Headache after a head injury, especially if the headache becomes worse overtime
A persistent headache that is worse after coughing, physical exertion, straining or a rapid movement
New headache pain if you’re 45 and up
Headache with stiff neck, mental confusion, fever, seizures, double vision, weakness, numbness, or trouble in speaking
