BACKGROUND: Migraine is a prevalent condition with debilitating effects. In the context of pediatric migraine, there exists a notable scarcity of data regarding the effectiveness of exercise interventions. Furthermore, despite the prevalent occurrence of neck pain in these patients, the role of cervical musculoskeletal disorders in the etiology continues to be a debated topic.
AIMS: This study is aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of aerobic and neck exercises for treatment of pediatric migraine.
METHODS: This randomized, controlled, single-blind trial included 51 pediatric migraine patients. Participants were divided into two groups: one performing aerobic exercise and the other performing neck exercises. Assessments included attack frequency, severity, duration, and neck pain for over 3 months.
RESULTS: Both exercise groups exhibited significant reductions in the attack frequency, severity, and duration. After 3 months, the aerobic exercise group showed a lower attack frequency than the neck exercise group. Subgroup analysis involving patients with neck pain showed similar neck pain reduction but favored the aerobic exercise group for attack frequency and severity.
CONCLUSIONS: Aerobic and neck exercises are effective in reducing the symptoms of pediatric migraine. Aerobic exercise may be particularly beneficial for reducing the attack frequency. These findings contribute to the limited data on exercise interventions for pediatric migraineurs and highlight the importance of tailored exercise programs for managing this condition. Future studies should consider more extensive exercise modalities and include diverse patient cohorts.
