Migraine attacks consist of head pain and hypersensitivities to somatosensory, visual, auditory and olfactory stimuli. Investigating how the migraine brain simultaneously processes and responds to multiple incoming stimuli may yield insights into migraine pathophysiology and migraine symptoms. The presence and intensity of hypersensitivity to one stimulus type are positively associated with the presence and intensity of hypersensitivities to other stimuli and to headache intensity. Furthermore, exposure to visual, auditory and olfactory stimuli can trigger migraine attacks. These relationships suggest a role for multisensory integration in migraine. Multisensory integration of somatosensory, visual, auditory and olfactory stimuli by the migraine brain may be an important concept for understanding migraine. Hypersensitivities to stimuli are most prominent during individual migraine attacks. However, many migraineurs have less prominent but persistent hypersensitivities to stimuli between migraine attacks i.
