Health Tip: Log Migraine Details in a Diary

(HealthDay News) -- Tracking your migraines can better prepare you to prevent or treat these often-debilitating headaches.

The Womenshealth.gov website suggests what to log in a headache diary:

• The date, time and duration of your migraine.
• What you were doing and where you were when the migraine began.
• Anything you drank or ate within 24 hours of the migraine.
• If you are a woman, the duration of your menstrual period.
