Chronic migraine, the challenge of a daily life to be rediscovered

(ANSA) – ROME, NOV 15 – Chronic migraine represents one of the greatest challenges of all painful syndromes and affects 2% of the population.

The most severe complication lies in the daily use of analgesic drugs which tends to create an addiction and secondarily a depression due to the inability to carry out one’s daily activities. This impossibility is expressed not only in alterations in social and emotional relationships, but also in a reduction in working capacity and as a consequence a recourse to the repetition of often useless diagnostic tests and repeated access to the emergency room facilities. These are the issues that will be addressed at the fourth Headache forum organized tomorrow, September 16, at the University of La Sapienza in a meeting entitled ‘Reversibility of complicated migraines’, by experts including Professor. Paolo Martelletti of La Sapienza University of Rome, Professor Antonio Russo of the Vanvitelli University of Naples, Professor Sabina Cevoli of the University of Bologna, Professor Gianluca Serafini of the University of Genoa and Professor Fabrizio Vernieri of the Biomedical Campus University of Rome. The debate is coordinated by Margherita De Bac of the Corriere della Sera. Event also in streaming: https://uniroma1.zoom.us/j/82295707889.

“The primary purpose of this forum – explains Professor Martelletti – is to identify the rehabilitation paths useful for restoring a better rhythm and quality of life in these chronic patients.

The answers to the questions will allow a large multitude of patients to be guided towards a phase of stable reversibility and towards total control of their migraine. The event is addressed to the general population as an educational moment for this chronic disabling disease “. (ANSA).
