Taking a look at the longer term benefits of staying healthy.
Migraines are considered to be a leading cause of worldwide disability. It is estimated that more than 37 million people in the U.S. suffer from migraines.
Migraine sufferers use twice the amount of prescription drugs and visit doctors twice as much as those who don't experience the problem. It is estimated that migraines cost the U.S. workforce over $5 billion per year due to missed work. People who experience migraines spend 63% more on monthly medical costs than those without them.
Further, it is believed that an overuse of pain medication during acute migraines may actually contribute to the prevalence of future/chronic migraines.
