The expert go-to guide on migraines and other headaches One in seven people suffer from migraine and women are three times more likely to suffer from migraine than men. In 2016, the WHO ranked migraine as the second cause of disability after low back pain in the world. So why do we still know so little about migraine and its causes? Despite being one of the most common, most prevalent and most debilitating conditions in the world, migraine is widely misunderstood, stigmatised and misdiagnosed. Managing Your Migraine is a short, practical guide and introduction to understanding primary and secondary headaches. It will improve the reader's knowledge of what migraine is, and offer tried, tested and new strategies to manage it well. Dr Katy Munro's expert advice will help migraine sufferers live their lives with reduced impact from this genetic, lifelong neurological condition.
