My pain is taking over my life. Why are migraines so hard to treat?

Migraines and pain can be difficult to treat because it’s a complex nervous system sensation that affects everyone differently. How you feel pain is unique to you, and what helps relieve someone else’s pain might not work for you.

Pain is a sensation meant to protect you. It usually goes away once the injury or illness that caused it heals. However, not all pain goes away. Chronic pain lasts three or more months.

Your ongoing pain could be related to your initial injury or illness or develop from an unknown cause. Certain diseases, like arthritis and migraines, also cause chronic pain.
