Is it common to have dizziness with migraines?

Yes, dizziness is a common symptom of migraines. Migraines are a type of headache that can cause intense pain, nausea, and other symptoms. Dizziness, or vertigo, is a sensation of spinning or lightheadedness. It can be a very unpleasant symptom and can make it difficult to go about your daily activities.

Dizziness can occur before, during, or after a migraine headache. It is thought to be caused by changes in the way the brain processes sensory information. These changes can disrupt the balance system in the inner ear, leading to dizziness.

Dizziness is a common symptom of migraines, but it is not experienced by everyone who has migraines. It is important to talk to your doctor if you experience dizziness with your migraines, as it can be a sign of a more serious condition.
