Hi,
    How are you? A migraine is much more than a bad headache. A migraine headache is a recurrent, throbbing headache usually felt on one side of the head. Migraines usually begin in early childhood, adolescence, or young adult life. Migraine headaches may be preceded by a warning sign. Warning signs of a migraine headache may include: flashes of light, dizziness or numbness. The signs are often accompanied by severe nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light and sound.

Symptoms may last for 5 to 15 minutes or more. As the symptoms disappear, a throbbing headache begins on one side of the head. The severity of the headache increases. Once the headache becomes very painful, people often experience nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and noise.
I would suggest that you visit a neurologist for further assistance.
Best.
