Do you suffer from migraines? Have you noticed that your migraine attacks may get worse during the summer?
According to Dr. Elisabetta Boyko, an expert in neurology at the European Medical Center, the causes of migraines in the summer are bright light, air retention and low fluid consumption.
According to the Russian expert, as reported by the Russian media, these three factors are the reason for feeling a migraine on hot summer days. Therefore, she advises once morest staying in direct sunlight for a long time, noting that the use of sunglasses relieves migraine symptoms associated with intolerance to bright sunlight.

She added: “Sunglasses that are pink or close to it block the blue part of the sun’s spectrum, which in some people causes migraines and headaches.”
The Russian doctor referred to the results of a scientific study conducted in 2021 and was dedicated to determining the positive impact of green light on the lives of patients who suffer from migraines, stressing that instead of staying in the sun, it is recommended to roam in places shaded by green trees.
She said not drinking enough fluids causes migraines. Therefore, you should drink water not only when you feel thirsty, but also regularly during the day.
The Russian expert also indicated that the “suffocation” air retention also causes migraines, because there is not enough fresh, renewable air, so the rooms must be ventilated by opening windows or turning on air conditioners, periodically to prevent air trapping in them, and to obtain fresh air constantly.
