Introduction

Neck pain is more prevalent in patients with chronic migraine compared to episodic migraine. Nociceptive input from neck muscles and dura mater converge on second-order neuron in the trigeminocervical complex. Due to these anatomical connections, activation of cervical nociceptive afferents may be involved in the induction and maintenance of migraine headache. (Haidar Muhsen Al-Khazali1,2022)

Some studies show that poor sleep quality triggers migraine or intensifies migraine attacks. Poor sleep quality and daytime sleepiness can be considered as comorbid conditions caused by migraine. In the biological rhythm and its formation, the sleep-wake cycle influenced by the circadian rhythm that’s formed with the repetition of 24-hour stages is decisive. The circadian rhythm is regulated by the suprachiasmatic nucleus in the anterior hypothalamus. 7.5-8 hours of sleep is sufficient for adults. Sleep deprivation or interruption may cause fatigue, drowsiness, headache, anxiety, impaired concentration, confusion, perception disorder, learning disability, developmental delay, health problems and an increase in accidents.
