Brief Answer:
Migraine headaches are unilateral headaches.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
Your answer is not completely posted. It will be helpful if you mention your full query.

Migraine headaches are unilateral headaches. But there are other causes also. I would advise that you should get yourself clinically examined and investigated by a medical professional.

You can take paracetamol 500mg along with Domperidone 30mg for symptomatic relief.
Migraine headaches can be triggered by lack of sleep, physical and emotional stress, milk products.

You should also monitor your blood pressure and get your vision tested.

I hope this is helpful to you.
If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Thanks.
