According to Dr. Lyudmila Laba, migraine characterized by recurring episodes of severe headache is not always the result of a vascular problem. In some cases, it may stem from inflammatory processes in the gastrointestinal tract.

She explained that vascular spasms can occur in the stomach or the duodenum as a result of swelling or inflammation.

These spasms may trigger pain that radiates in waves to the head and is often accompanied by nausea and vomiting.

"Regardless of where it begins, the pain can spread to the head because all blood vessels are interconnected, and the density of nerve endings is much greater in that area, making the pain more intense," Dr. Laba said.
