Rock in Rio involves an intense combination of stimuli that starts before entering the City of Rock and can extend until dawn: shows, lights, music, heat, long periods standing, and few hours of sleep. For those living with migraine, this schedule requires special care, especially for those who already know the factors capable of triggering symptoms.
Migraine is more than a simple headache. It is a neurological disease that can cause moderate to severe pain episodes, often pulsating, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and increased sensitivity to light and sounds. Some people also experience aura, with neurological manifestations that may include visual disturbances and other sensations before or during attacks.
