Is Migraine lead to brain tumor..?

Question

Past 15 years I am suffering from Vascular migraine....

Answer 1

At the onset of a migraine headache, blood vessels within the head constrict. This may cause a decrease in blood flow to the surface of the brain. A dilation of blood vessels of the head and scalp then occurs, setting off a chain of reactions that result in the headache. Evidence indicates that decreased localized brain metabolism initiates the attack and that the initial decrease in blood flow is a response to the lowered metabolic demand, rather than due to constriction of blood vessels. Among the biochemical changes associated with migraine is a reduced level of enkephalins, the brain's pain-relieving chemicals.

Hormone-level changes (such as those experienced by women during menopause or menstruation), endocrine imbalances, and stress are considered precipitating factors of migraine headaches in susceptible individuals. Several treatments have been successful in helping migraine sufferers. These include medications such as ergotamine tartrate, which thwarts the excessive expansion of blood vessels and aborts the acute attack; and propranolol, which stabilizes blood-vessel tone and prevents subsequent attacks. but it doesnt lead to brain tumor.absoultly not. even this will come into control if proper medication is taken and avoid stress related matters

Answer 2

I've asked my neurologist the same question and he said that there is no evidence to support that migraines lead to brain tumors. Migraines are a neurological disorder that affects the blood vessels, it has no impact on cellular growth. That is not to say that you will not develop a brain tumor for other reasons, but not from migraines.

Answer 3

No. a Migraine cannot LEAD to brain cancer. However, persistent migraines can be a sign of something wrong in your body. Chances are you do NOT have brain cancer, but you should get it checked out by a doctor. There are many things that could be happening including a lack of proper nutrition, poor circulation. Don't worry, you don't have brain cancer, but you SHOULD see a doctor at your next opportunity! Best of luck!
