Internal medicine specialist Lyudmila Lapa revealed that some gastrointestinal problems may be among the causes of migraine. According to her, migraine, which consists of recurrent episodes of severe headache, does not necessarily indicate a problem limited to the blood vessels; it may instead result from inflammatory processes in the gastrointestinal tract. The physician notes that vascular spasms can occur in the stomach or duodenum due to swelling or inflammation, leading to pain that radiates in waves to the head, accompanied by nausea and vomiting. She says, “Regardless of where it originates, the pain will spread to the head, because all blood vessels are interconnected, and the density of nerve endings is much higher, making the pain more intense in that region.” Source: RT
