Migraine Headache Diagnosis

A migraine can be diagnosed based on the family history, medical history, and physical examination. A computerized tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), or a spinal tap may be recommended to rule out other causes.

Are Migraines Hereditary?

Yes, say scientists. If one or both of your parents are prone to migraines, there is a 50-75% chance that you may have them too.
