Migraine vs. Headache: know the difference

How to differentiate between a migraine and headache?

When you feel pain or pressure in your head, it may become difficult for you to assess whether you are experiencing a common headache or a migraine. Let's understand how different they are from each other.

A typical headache usually affects both sides of your head and varies from a mild to moderate pain. It can last from 30 minutes to up to a period of one week.

Some specific areas which get affected by a headache are:

•   Temples
•   Forehead
•   Back of your neck

Factors that trigger this headache type are a muscle strain, stress or anxiety.

A migraine, on the other hand, is also a type of a headache which results in an acute throbbing sensation in one part of your head. Usually, migraine headaches are highly painful. Migraine pain makes it difficult for a person to carry out his/her daily tasks. Symptoms or signs associated with migraine attacks are:

•   Vomiting
•   Nausea
•   Sensitivity to sound or light
•   Pain in the temples
•   Temporary loss of vision
•   Pain behind your ear or eye

What are the common causes of a migraine?

•   Hormonal imbalances in women - fluctuations in oestrogen, especially during menopause or pregnancy seem to trigger a migraine
•   Drinks like wine and extremely caffeinated beverages
•   Foods such as salty foods, aged cheese as well as processed foods can trigger the migraine attack.
•   Medications - vasodilators such as nitroglycerine and oral contraceptives can intensify migraine pain.

How to treat a headache?

Fortunately, you can get rid of stress-induced headaches through over-the-counter treatments, which include:

•   Aspirin
•   Acetaminophen
•   Ibuprofen

How to treat a migraine?

If you experience migraine attacks less frequently, these medicines may give you quick relief:

•   Triptans, such as rizatriptan (Maxalt) or almotriptan (Axert)
•   Antinausea medicines, such as chlorpromazine (Thorazine), promethazine (Phenergan) or prochlorperazine (Compazine)
•   Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as acetaminophen, naproxen sodium, aspirin or ibuprofen

Some preventive tips:

•   Make changes in your diet such as avoid such foods, including caffeine and alcohol which are believed to trigger headaches.
•   You can also try muscle relaxation exercises, yoga or meditation to ease the migraine attack.

[www.keralites.net] NEVER MAKE A WOMAN CRY

 

Never make a woman cry...

There is nothing more expensive than a female tear
When a single drop comes out, it first mixes with 'Loreal' eyeliner (Rs.650) 'Dior' mascara (Rs.2500)...
Then when it rolls down the cheek, it mixes with 'D&G' blusher (Rs.2500)...
finally when it touches the lips, it gets mixed with 'Maybelline' lipstick (Rs.350)... 
This means that a single drop is ruining Rs.6000
Pls don't make them cry guys... It wld b difficult to afford it .....!

[www.keralites.net] Awestruck Dead Trees Fusion Picture Frames [17 Attachments]

 

I enjoy creating art that unites humble, as well as involved, objects, into a kind of their own — creating art that is distinctive and intricate, yet in its truest sense, uncomplicated. As much as I embrace convention in art, and I certainly do, my Fusion Frame art fulfills the part of me that says "no" to convention. That it is not only okay to be avant-garde, it is right. I like to embrace alternatives to an accepted order in art. To even, at times, completely ignore conventions when fashioning a piece and enjoy the unbounded ability to create by refusing to be limited by precept, artistically speaking. Seeking out a unique frame and then spending a day in the Central Oregon forest searching for a just right piece of tree branch to blend with the frame is gratifying in and of itself. Then, each project involves woodworking, painting, and a bit of sculpting. Dedicating the hours of time fashioning a frame that merges a man-made as well as natural element into a single piece of art that captures so much imagination, is rewarding. Tailoring a frame with a special, sentimental object for someone is even more rewarding — it captures so much life!

The main components of my Fusion Frames are a reclaimed tree branch or root and a wood frame. I have always appreciated old, dead trees – more so the branches. The more personality the better. I am thrilled to have found a way to use them in my work. I use many different woods. Central Oregon Manzanita and Pine, Juniper, Aspen, Willamette Valley Filbert and California Grapevine are a few of my favorites. I have also always been drawn to frames, especially antique frames. Using frames of all types and spanning well over one 150 years make the Fusion Frames that much more interesting. The solid construction, weathered patinas and unique details exhibit such character and history. If only they could actually speak of the stories they have witnessed over the years. My goal is to bring together each's attitude and personality and reflect it as one. Other components are paints, stains, bonding sculpting agents, and hardware. If used, leather, iron, brass, bronze and glass all retain the personality of their heritage.

The first step in creating a Fusion Frame involves searching for and acquiring a frame or tree branch that strikes me as extraordinary. I appreciate items that evidence unique embellishments and scars – items that reveal their history, even if in the most discreet fashion.

When I find a frame or branch, I typically instantly recognize how I want to employ it in one of my artworks. Therefore, the next step is to seek out its counterpart. I am looking for counterparts that "talk to one another." Once I find a frame and tree branch that pair flawlessly together, there is component preparation.

A tree branch reclaimed from the wilderness requires washing, organic disinfecting and drying before it is ready for use. At times, a frame will as well, if it has been stowed inadequately over the years.

Finally, each project entails design, woodworking, sculpting and painting.

A project dictates the degree and type of woodworking, sculpting, painting and finishing techniques required. All of this necessitates a lot of vision, commitment and patience, which makes it that much more rewarding.

The blending of these fundamentals creates a distinct piece of art. It is meaningful and different. When finished, each one exhibits many individual characteristics, but in a singular, harmonized style.

Each Fusion Frame shows the individual history of every part as well as their combined story as one. Each is a chronicle, complete with scars and adornment.

I have always valued art and its ability to evoke emotion and action. The diverse human imagination, opinion and deed evidenced in art, simply captivates me. It is ever evolving and multifaceted.

Art is a reflection of people, and how they think, feel and behave. It is an uncluttered record. I respect it. I appreciate practically all art genres and styles. However, I enjoy surrealism most.

I particularly like the element of unlikely juxtapositions – how the surreal merges the otherwise unrelated into a singular work. I find it intriguing. The dissimilar do belong together, but only in that occasion. I see this in every Fusion Frame.

Fusion Frames are exceptionally distinctive. Each encompasses a genuine piece of reclaimed wood and an existent picture frame, both with their own history and nuances.

When fused together they become one, with a fresh beginning. The same piece influences people differently, as is the case with all art.

I am passionate about Fusion Frames and passing them on to others, so that they can enjoy them as much as I do. My passion drives me to never accept limits on the possibilities.
