The majority of people with migraine experience symptoms before and/or after the headache phase of a migraine attack. This study delved into the experience of these symptoms in more detail across six different countries. Before the headache, common symptoms include neck stiffness, fatigue, sensitivity to light and sound and aura. After the headache, common symptoms include persisting fatigue, pain and difficulty concentrating. People who have symptoms before and after the headache phase have higher levels of disability and impairment. We need better treatments for the non-headache symptoms of migraine.
