00:00 Headache?

00:02 Sometimes, you feel dizzy.

00:04 But most of the time, we are just pretending.

00:12 And if you get hit by this, you'll feel pain all day long.

00:27 I'll ask you, what's the thing that makes you headache, Kapuso?

00:31 It's my headache when I don't have money.

00:34 Boyfriend?

00:35 That's a headache.

00:37 When I'm in love.

00:39 Or sometimes, when my baby is too naughty.

00:42 Problems at school works for me.

00:45 When I'm reviewing or there's someone who's annoying.

00:49 Headache.

00:50 It's just like a joke, right?

00:54 But what if we think that a simple headache is just a migraine?

01:02 That's what makes a 27-year-old Michelle headache.

01:10 She often has a headache.

01:13 She can't even talk about what kind of headache she has.

01:17 My mom's side of the story is what makes us headache.

01:22 I was only 14 years old.

01:24 That's when I started having a headache, even when I was at home.

01:28 I had a headache for 4 days in a week.

01:31 Michelle has a medicine ready for every attack.

01:36 But sometimes, when she gets sick, her solution is to hit her head on the wall.

01:42 Oh my, calm down, Michelle.

01:45 Sometimes, I get to the point where I get sick.

01:50 I fall asleep crying.

01:52 When it's 12 noon, Michelle will go around to buy donuts.

01:58 Donut!

02:00 Donut!

02:02 After walking in the heat,

02:05 when she gets home, she's greeted by naughty kids.

02:10 She's there, playing.

02:11 When she gets home, she's already hitting her head.

02:13 What's more, her headache is when she's on her phone.

02:18 When I'm on my phone, I'm lying down.

02:20 I look straight at the light, and I feel like I'm being healed.

02:24 I feel like I'm being healed.

02:26 Michelle suspects that she has a migraine.

02:30 To confirm, we asked a doctor from the Medical City's Institute of Neurological Sciences to examine her.

02:39 Are you just feeling dizzy?

02:41 Yes.

02:42 I'm getting dizzy.

02:44 Close one of your eyes.

02:45 Tell me how many fingers are up there that you can see.

02:48 Two.

02:50 Okay. Sorry, I'll just hold it.

02:52 It doesn't hurt here.

02:53 When you close your eyes, it's fine.

02:55 Okay.

02:57 From our examination,

02:59 we found that you don't have any signs of deficit or lack of function in your body.

03:09 What's the cause of Michelle's headache?

03:14 Before Doc gave the diagnosis, did you know that there are different types of headaches?

03:20 We have primary headaches and secondary headaches.

03:25 Secondary headaches can be caused by other problems.

03:30 There are things that can induce headaches.

03:35 For example, when there's a different kind of illness in a different part of the body,

03:38 it can induce headaches.

03:40 Sometimes, when you're feeling dizzy.

03:42 It really goes up to your stomach.

03:44 It goes up to your stomach.

03:47 It goes up to here.

03:49 It goes up to here.

03:51 It's like there's something pinching your head.

03:55 It's like something is pinching your back.

03:58 This is a migraine.

04:01 I don't like that.

04:03 It's a neurological condition that is considered a primary headache.

04:08 According to the 2016 Global Burden of Disease Study,

04:11 12 million Filipinos have migraines.

04:15 The question is, how can we know if the symptom of a headache is a migraine that should be consulted by experts?

04:23 We can say that a headache is a migraine if there's a bump that is felt in the head.

04:28 It is also caused by intense light, noise, or movement that can result in dizziness or nausea.

04:38 It has two characteristics.

04:41 It can be pulsating or bumping.

04:46 It can be unilateral or on one side of the head.

04:50 It can also be aggravated by physical activity or usual activities.

04:58 It can also be moderate to severe in severity.

05:01 There are also associated symptoms.

05:05 One of the following, you may have nausea and vomiting.

05:08 You may also have phonophobia and photophobia.

05:12 Another common symptom is tension headache.

05:16 It occurs when our muscles contract in our head and neck.

05:21 We get it from physical, emotional, or mental stress.

05:25 It can be treated with a rubber band that is like a string that is twisted around the head.

05:34 Tension headache is described as a tight sensation.

05:39 It feels tight.

05:42 Usually, the distribution of our headache is around here.

05:46 According to Dr. Maldonado, pain can be alleviated using muscle relaxants.

05:51 Although sometimes, the characteristics can be the same.

05:57 We will distinguish it using the criteria that we have mentioned.

06:02 The 37-year-old call center agent, Alexi, is the one who suffers from this.

06:08 I started working at a call center in 2016.

06:13 I work night shifts.

06:17 My routine is to go home, sleep, and wake up.

06:22 Sometimes, I can't sleep.

06:24 Because of his lifestyle, Alexi noticed that his head aches.

06:30 It happens three times a month.

06:32 Usually, when I wake up, I have a headache.

06:38 I force myself to go to work.

06:41 But there was a time when he couldn't take it anymore.

06:45 We have high calls.

06:48 There are a lot of calls that come in.

06:51 I can't breathe.

06:53 My mouth and eyes are on the computer.

06:56 I can't take it anymore.

06:59 I couldn't take it anymore.

07:00 The day after my shift, I felt that I needed to have a check-up.

07:06 Alexi's diagnosis is Denshon Headache.

07:10 The doctor said that weighting is prone to illness.

07:14 Especially in my field of work, it is stressful.

07:19 He was told to complete his 8-hour sleep and take vitamin C.

07:26 He was advised to take paracetamol when he felt a headache.

07:31 He is also trying to achieve a healthy lifestyle like eating healthy food.

07:37 So, if you feel a headache,

07:43 you should consult an expert.

07:45 If a person has a headache, we can ask the doctor to examine it.

07:49 We can examine the characteristics of your headache.

07:54 We can determine if it is a migraine headache or another type of headache.

07:58 Meanwhile, what is the diagnosis of Michelle's case?

08:03 According to the doctor, Michelle is experiencing migraine.

08:07 We have criteria for diagnosing migraine headaches.

08:13 At least, there should be 5 attacks that happened previously with the characteristics that we are looking for.

08:21 It can last for around 4 hours to around 3 days.

08:25 It is that long.

08:27 What are the possible causes of migraine?

08:30 According to the doctor, there are environmental and mental triggers,

08:35 hormonal changes,

08:37 new sleep patterns,

08:39 medications,

08:41 and sometimes, food.

08:43 There are foods that can trigger migraine

08:48 like wine, chocolate, mani, cheese, and processed food.

08:52 Once a migraine headache is diagnosed,

08:55 it is not 100% cured or the migraine will be eliminated.

08:59 But we manage it by

09:01 one, we lower the possibility that it will occur again

09:06 or it will be frequent to have it recur.

09:09 Or, one, we can reduce the symptoms.

09:13 According to the doctor, in order to avoid migraine or other types of headaches,

09:17 proper diet, hydration, and of course, exercise are also important.

09:22 Proper sleep and lesser screen time are also important in a healthy lifestyle.

09:27 So, in World Brain Day, we remind you that

09:30 you should not neglect any type of headache.

09:33 Sometimes, we neglect headaches.

09:38 It can be just tiredness or just a little bit of fatigue.

09:41 But there are types of headaches that

09:45 can be really scary.

09:48 For example, if you can hear,

09:51 there are people with aneurysms, brain tumors.

09:54 Today, we are celebrating World Brain Day.

09:58 World Brain Day is a campaign

10:01 to have information dissemination

10:07 about brain health

10:10 or conditions

10:13 that can help us take care of our brain.

10:15 There are many diseases in the brain

10:18 or neurological diseases

10:20 that can cause us to become old or have a disability

10:24 like strokes.

10:27 So, dear friends, remember,

10:30 it is important for us to be everyday healthy.

10:32 But not only physically,

10:34 but also brain-healthy.
