時(shí)差N小時(shí):運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)引發(fā)頭痛嗎? Does Exercise Trigger Headache?

Dear A Moment of Science,I like to exercise, but Isuffer from migraines and worry that getting mysweat on at the gymcould trigger a headache.

親愛(ài)的科學(xué)一刻：我喜歡運(yùn)動(dòng)，但我患有偏頭痛，擔(dān)心去健身房運(yùn)動(dòng)到出汗會(huì)引發(fā)頭痛。

Am I right to be cautious?

我應(yīng)該這么謹(jǐn)慎嗎?

Good question.

問(wèn)得好。

For some people, exercise can in fact lead to amigraine.

對(duì)一些人來(lái)說(shuō)，運(yùn)動(dòng)其實(shí)能導(dǎo)致偏頭痛。

But most studies have shown that, onaverage, exercise may actually help ward off migraines.

但絕大多數(shù)研究顯示，一般而言，運(yùn)動(dòng)可能實(shí)際上能幫你遠(yuǎn)離偏頭痛。

At the very least, exercise doesn't seemto hurt most migraine sufferers.

至少可以肯定，運(yùn)動(dòng)并不會(huì)對(duì)大多數(shù)偏頭痛患者造成損害。

Right,one study done in Sweden put more than ninety migraine prone folks into threegroups:one that exercised for around forty minutes three times a week, another that was givena drug toprevent migraines, and a third had regular relaxation sessions.

正好，瑞典有一項(xiàng)研究將90名患有偏頭痛的人分成3組：一組一周進(jìn)行3次約40分鐘的運(yùn)動(dòng);另一組服用藥物來(lái)防止偏頭痛;第三組則進(jìn)行定時(shí)放松活動(dòng)。

After three months, and then anadditional six months of follow up, the study found thatmigraines were reduced for people in allthree groups.

3個(gè)月后的研究結(jié)果及另外6個(gè)月的跟蹤調(diào)查顯示，3組人的偏頭痛都有所緩解。

Another, smaller study examined more than twenty-five migraine sufferers before, during,andafter working out on stationary bikes.

另一項(xiàng)規(guī)模較小的研究對(duì)25名偏頭痛患者在健身車上運(yùn)動(dòng)前、運(yùn)動(dòng)中和運(yùn)動(dòng)后的情況進(jìn)行了調(diào)查。

After three months, the subjects all experienced fewerheadaches.

3個(gè)月后，所有的研究對(duì)象發(fā)生偏頭痛的次數(shù)都更少了。

So at least according to these studies, exercise appears to be a viable alternative tomigrainedrugs.

因此，至少就這些研究結(jié)論來(lái)說(shuō)，用運(yùn)動(dòng)來(lái)代替服用偏頭痛藥物似乎是可行的。

To be clear, though, this doesn't mean that working out never triggers migraines.

盡管如此，需要明確的是，這并不意味著鍛煉不會(huì)引發(fā)偏頭痛。

Especially if you don't exercise regularly, it's probably best to ease into it and see how yourheadreacts.

尤其當(dāng)你不經(jīng)常運(yùn)動(dòng)時(shí)，最好是循序漸進(jìn)地進(jìn)行運(yùn)動(dòng)，并看看你頭部的反應(yīng)。

If working up a sweat doesn't appear to trigger a headache, then you can gradually buildup tohigher intensity workouts.

如果運(yùn)動(dòng)到出汗并未引發(fā)頭痛，你就可以逐步進(jìn)行更大強(qiáng)度的鍛煉。
