The Korean Headache Association (Chairman Joo Min-kyung, Department of Neurology at Yonsei University Severance Hospital) announced on the 16th that it will launch the '2024 Wise Migraine Life" campaign to improve awareness and communication of migraines and hold an online lecture for headache patients and the public as the first program of the campaign.
The lecture is an online (Zoom) lecture in which medical staff specializing in headaches from each region participate directly, and consists of introductions to various headache diseases and times to ask and answer questions about their usual diseases.

First, Director Choi Yoon-joo (Choi Yoon-ju Neurology Clinic) will give a lecture on the causes, symptoms, and treatments of childhood headaches under the theme of `Diagnosis and Treatment of Pediatric Headache,' and Professor Kim Jae-myung (Department of Neurology at Chonnam National University Hospital) will give a lecture on migraine symptoms, stages, and acute treatment drugs under the theme of 「Department of Neurology」. Director Lee Se-young (Lee Se-young's Neurology Clinic) will then introduce the importance of preventive treatment for migraine, along with the importance of preventive treatment for migraine, anti-CGRP antibody injections, and Botox treatment. Finally, Professor Jeong Jin-sung (Department of Neurology at Wonkwang University Hospital) will share the diagnosis and treatment process and preventive treatment of migraine under the theme of 「Current treatment」.
This online lecture on the regional tour will be held online through Zoom, a video conference platform, and anyone interested in headaches, family members, or headache diseases can participate regardless of region. The lecture will be free of charge, and you can scan the poster QR code until July 22, a day before the lecture, or fill out the application form using the 'Happy World Without Headache' pop-up window, or the event and news bulletin board.
Joo Min-kyung, president of the Korean Headache Association, said, "Headache diseases including migraines are serious diseases that affect patients' home, daily life, and social life. Compared to their severity, they are often misunderstood as a ' tolerable disease' or 'catch disease', so proper diagnosis and proper treatment are not being made."With the recent emergence of new migraine treatment options and hopes for patients, the Korean Headache Society will also make efforts to actively communicate with migraine patients and obtain appropriate treatment and accurate information."
Meanwhile, online lectures on regional tours will be conducted by the second half of the year by the second medical staff in Busan, Gyeongsang-do, following the first Honam area on July 23. Detailed schedules and information on the lectures will be updated later through the website 'Happy World Without Headache' of the Korean Headache Association.
