Weather and temperature changes

A shift in the weather can trigger your headache. “Weather is a common trigger for migraines,” says Vincent Martin, MD, the director of the Headache and Facial Pain Center at the University of Cincinnati Gardner Neuroscience Institute and president of the National Headache Foundation.

“Barometric rises and falls could trigger a headache by activating the trigeminal nerve in the sinuses. The changing pressure could be sensed by the inner ear, too,” he says.

If the weather brings a change in temperature, Martin says, your head could suffer. “Changing temperatures are also commonly reported by migraine patients as a trigger, particularly large swings in temperature.”
