Migraine management.
A clearer view between attacks.

Migraine management is the ongoing care that helps a person with migraine reduce the impact of attacks. Migraine is a neurological condition with recurring attacks of headache and other symptoms. It cannot be cured, but treatment can help manage and prevent attacks. Care usually combines an accurate diagnosis, treatment for attacks, prevention where appropriate, attention to possible triggers and patient education.

A migraine management plan may include treatment for individual attacks, preventive treatment when attacks are frequent or severe, and everyday steps such as regular meals, sleep and fluids. It often includes a headache diary to track attacks and possible triggers. The clinician decides which medicines and approaches are suitable and reviews the plan over time.

Migraine is diagnosed from a person's headache history and a physical and neurological examination, using criteria such as the International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD-3). Scans are not usually needed. A headache diary, also called a migraine diary, records the date, duration, severity, other symptoms and any treatment taken for each headache, which helps reveal patterns over time.

People whose headaches are frequent, getting worse, changing in pattern or affecting daily life can discuss them with a clinician. This includes people who regularly need treatment for headaches, because frequent use of acute treatments can itself lead to more headaches. The right timing and type of care depend on medical history and local guidance.

No. Headache is a symptom, while migraine is a neurological condition with recurring attacks. A migraine attack usually lasts between 4 and 72 hours and often includes throbbing pain on one side of the head, nausea and sensitivity to light and sound. Tension-type headache, the most common type of headache condition, usually feels like pressure or tightness around the head.

Parts of migraine management can be supported remotely, including headache diaries, validated questionnaires, patient education, check-ins and video consultations where the care team considers them suitable. An initial assessment usually includes a physical and neurological examination, and some tests need a local appointment. The care team decides which steps are suitable for remote completion.

Digital follow-up helps a care team see headache days, treatment use and impact between appointments, rather than relying on recall at the next visit. WeGuide brings a digital headache diary, scheduled questionnaires, reminders and patient education into the journey configured by the care team. WeGuide does not assess emergencies: a sudden, severe or unusual headache needs urgent medical care through local emergency services.

The clinician and patient agree on a plan, which may include treatment for attacks, preventive options where appropriate, everyday steps and a follow-up review. Continuing the headache diary helps show whether the plan is working. WeGuide supports this ongoing journey with patient guidance, scheduled check-ins, reminders and, where available, activity and sleep data from connected health apps and wearables.
