What Causes Continually-worsening Migraines And Constipation?

My great-niece is 11 and has suffered from continually-worsening migraines for about three years. The only other symptom that she experiences is that she is usually not able to have a bowel movement during the same time. If she does have one, a very small amount is produced. The migraines are getting much worse. Could there be any connection between her severe headaches and her bowel issues? My niece has had her to several doctors and they have tried various medications and diet restrictions, as well as allergy testing.

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello.
The continuing headaches might be due to a refractive error or other weakness of eye muscles. You need to get your child examined by an paediatric ophthalmologist at least once.
The anti migraine medications should continue.
A consultation with a neurophysician is also recommended.
Hope this guides you.
