Aura sets in shortly before or during a migraine and can last anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes. Common Migraine – Migraine without Aura Diagnosing migraines without aura can be difficult because the symptoms are similar to several other types of migraines. Migraine without Head Pain A migraine without head pain is also called a silent or acephalgic migraine, this type of migraine can be very alarming. Hemiplegic Migraine If you have ever had a migraine that felt more like a stroke, it was probably a hemiplegic migraine.

Chronic Migraine If you have a headache for more than 15 days a month, you're probably suffering from chronic migraines.

Cervicogenic Headache When the pain in your head is caused by pain in your neck, you probably have a cervicogenic headache. Ice Pick Headaches Ice pick headaches feel like you're getting stabbed in the head with an ice pick. They often come on suddenly, delivering an intense, sharp pain.
