Nausea and vomiting often occur with migraine attacks. And research suggests that people who have headaches often may be more likely to develop gastrointestinal conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Research has shown that people who have reflux, diarrhea, constipation and nausea are more likely to have headaches than people who don&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>And digestive conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome and celiac disease may be linked to migraines. Treating the conditions may help reduce how many migraines people have or how intense the migraines feel. However, more research is needed to understand these connections.<\/p>\n<p>In young children, several syndromes that cause gastrointestinal symptoms are linked with migraines. These syndromes can cause episodes of vomiting, known as cyclical vomiting. Or they may cause stomach pain, known as abdominal migraine. Another syndrome causes dizziness, known as benign paroxysmal vertigo of childhood. These are called childhood periodic syndromes or episodic syndromes. They don&#8217;t usually cause head pain. But often these children will have migraines later in life.<\/p>\n<p>If you experience nausea, vomiting or diarrhea with headaches, talk to your healthcare professional. Treating the headache usually relieves the symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>Your healthcare professional may recommend an anti-nausea or anti-diarrheal medicine. Or you might need a pain medicine that you don&#8217;t take by mouth, such as a nasal spray or an injection. Keep in mind that some pain medicines may increase nausea. They include aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) and naproxen sodium (Aleve).<\/p>\n<p><!--googleoff: all--><\/p>\n<div class=\"contentbox no-border\">\n<link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/~\/media\/kcms\/ux\/css\/newslettereh.css\"\/>\n<article>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"content\">\n<p>\n                \u00a0\n            <\/p>\n<div class=\"myc-subscription-form\" data-sending-url=\"https:\/\/s74881809.t.eloqua.com\/e\/f2\" data-name-form=\"MKT.PES.HC.EmailSignup2\" data-last-step=\"true\">\n<div class=\"myc-step-container\">\n<div class=\"myc-subscription-step-wrapper\" id=\"first-step\" aria-describedby=\"formTitle\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<div class=\"myc-form-comp-wrapper\" tabindex=\"-1\" id=\"gralError\" aria-describedby=\"errorBanner\" hidden=\"\">\n<p role=\"alert\" id=\"errorBanner\" class=\"myc-error-header\">There is a problem with<br \/>\n                                information submitted for this request.
