Some migraines can be indicative of a more serious medical condition. Here is a list of symptoms that would necessitate a visit to a doctor:

1. A very sudden headache that gets progressively worse, and may include nausea, vomiting or dizziness (may be caused by a stroke).
2. A spontaneous headache that is worse than any other headache (may be caused by an aneurysm).
3. Terrible headaches that start after age 50.
4. Headaches that are followed by impaired memory or balance, dizziness, numbness or tingling in extremities (may be caused by a stroke).
5. Headaches that get worse with coughing or sneezing (may be an infection in the brain).
6. Headache that sets in following an injury to the head (may be caused by a hemorrhage).
7. Headaches that are present simultaneously with a fever (may be caused by spinal meningitis).
8. A pulsating pain around the eye that may spread to the ear or neck and is not alleviated by pain medication (may indicate a blood clot).

Those who suffer from migraines may benefit from Migravent, a dietary supplement made specifically for migraines.
