Abstract :

A complex disorder with genetic influences known as migraine causes episodes of moderate-to-severe headaches, most frequently unilateral, and is typically accompanied by nausea, light sensitivity, and other symptoms of a migraine. The Latin word “hemigranea,” which later became part of the Greek language, is the source of the word migraine. Such a term is known as a “migraine” in French. It frequently results in incapacitation and job loss. Attacks from migraines are intricate brain processes that frequently last for several hours to days. 75% of migraine cases are the most common type, which lacks an aura. A 29 year old male arrived at the OPD on 26th OCTOBER 2022, with complaints of Migraine since 1 year. Life situation indicates there is business stress. On asking further about mental and emotional state, he mentioned about his grief about losing his mother and brother 9 years ago. Patient symptoms were analyzed, and prescriptions were made based on the totality of symptoms, i.e., a holistic approach. The medicine prescribed was Nux vom 30C in aqua, which has shown marked improvement. This article describes a detailed case report of a Migraine and the role of homoeopathy in it.
