Headache

Migraine Awareness Week is typically observed in September each year. The specific dates may vary annually as different organizations and countries may choose different weeks within the month to raise awareness about migraines, highlight the challenges faced by migraine sufferers, and promote better understanding and support for those living with this neurological condition.

Common misconceptions about migraines include thinking they're just bad headaches, that they're not a serious medical condition, that everyone experiences them the same way, and that over-the-counter painkillers can always provide relief. Additionally, some believe that stress alone causes migraines, which is not entirely accurate, as various triggers can contribute to their onset.
