Hello everyone. Today I would like to talk
about my dream. My dream is to be a doctor and I want to be a specialist of
headache, especially migraine.
Do you have proper understanding of
headache? Do you have heard the word ”migraine”? I’ll explain simply. Many
headaches are caused by tension when a person is nervous, stressed, or tired.
Headaches also commonly result from sustained tightening of the muscles of the
head and neck. Eyestrain is another common cause of headaches.
A migraine headache is a recurrent, severe
headache. Migraine are characterized by throbbing pain that frequently occurs
on one side of the head. This pain lasts from 4 to 72 hours. In some
individuals, migraines are brought about by eating certain foods such as
chocolate, cheese, and wine. Migraines may become worse by movement or physical
activity. They are typically accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity
to light and sound. Although a cure is not known, there are treatments for
stopping a migraine once it has started. In Japan, about one in ten people have
migraines and four fifths of patients are women.
I have been suffering from migraine since I
was junior high school student. So I am interested in headache treatments. I
think it’s important not only to deal with migraines when they occur, but also
to prevent them during daily life. In the future, I want to do research on cure
and prevention of headaches. In addition, I’m aiming to be a doctor who can
understand the suffering of patients by using my headache experience.
In order to make my dream come true, I have
to acquire broad range of knowledge and specialized skills. Although it is not
easy to be a good doctor, I want to try my best to study at this university.
Thank you for hearing.
