Hi, Recurring migraine headaches can have multiple causes, including genetics, environmental factors, lifestyle choices, and medical conditions. In some cases, a history of head injury or trauma can increase the likelihood of developing migraines, especially if the injury affected the brain or the neck. In your case, the blunt force trauma from your fall in the Marine Corps may have played a role in the development of your migraines. It is possible that the injury caused changes in the way your brain processes pain signals or in the blood vessels that supply your brain, both of which are involved in migraine pathophysiology. It s also possible that the injury may have caused underlying inflammation or nerve damage that makes you more susceptible to migraines. While migraines can worsen over time, there could be other factors contributing to the increase in frequency and severity of your migraines. For example, stress, changes in sleep patterns, hormonal changes, and dietary changes can all trigger migraines. It s also possible that you may have developed new medical conditions that could be contributing to your migraines. It s important to discuss your symptoms with a healthcare provider, who can help you determine the underlying cause of your migraines and develop a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. Your provider may recommend lifestyle changes, medications, or other therapies to help manage your migraines and reduce their frequency and severity. Take care. Hope I have answered your question.
