The episodic nature of the headache is most characteristic. initially during aura, there is a decrease in cerebral blood flow, particularly in the occipital and parietal lobes. Later, during the phase of headache there is a dilatation of the extracranial arteries related to the variations in 5-HT blood levels. Types of migraine

2. Common migraine. This is without aura. Headache, nausea, vomiting and photophobia are the classical symptoms.
3. Hemiplegic migraine. In this type, hemiplegia lasting for a few days follows the headache.
4. Basilar migraine. Vertigo, diplopia, dysarthria with or without visual symptoms precede occipital headache.
5. Cluster headache. Bouts of severe pain around one eye with associated epiphora and nasal congestion is the hallmark and this type mostly affects males.
