The commercial on television said that Botox can be used to treat migraines; the statement sparked my interest - Botox for migraines, since when? I thought Botox was for wrinkles.
According to Migraine Again, the correlation between Botox and migraine relief was an accidental discovery. Patients who received Botox treatment reported that their headaches improved.
I didn’t have to look very far to find skepticism. At the end of the commercial, the spokesperson disclosed the side effects of Botox. It turns out that the Botox recommended for migraines could also cause headaches.
Avoiding common migraine triggers may be a better solution than Botox. These common migraine triggers include dairy, chocolate, eggs, citrus fruits, meat, wheat, nuts, tomatoes, onions, corn, apples, and bananas.
If you have debilitating migraines, then you may want to look into the Migraine Diet.
