Abdominal Migraine

📋Overview

Abdominal Migraine involves paroxysmal episodes of moderate to severe midline pain that can last for several hours or days, occurring between intervals of normal health. These symptomatic periods are frequently associated with a family history of migraine headaches and may involve neurological pathways related to brain-gut signaling.

This condition is primarily diagnosed in pediatric patients, although it can also affect adults. Clinical observations indicate that children who experience these symptoms often transition to developing typical migraine headaches as they mature.
