Migraine prevalence has risen over the last few decades, which may be attributed to lifestyle changes. Epistaxis is unusual in migraine. Here we present a case series of four patients, who are presented with headaches associated with epistaxis. A detailed history revealed cardinal symptoms of migraine according to the International Headache Society, including hemicranial throbbing headache of moderate to severe intensity lasting for a duration of four to 72 hours, along with associated features of nausea, vomiting, photophobia, and phonophobia. Investigations, including ENT (ear, nose, and throat) examination, nasal endoscopy, gastroscopy, bronchoscopy, hematological, and coagulation parameters, were negative. All patients were started on prophylactic treatment for migraine, and they responded well. Epistaxis occurs at the peak of headache following which symptoms tend to resolve. The pathophysiology behind this is stimulation of the trigeminovascular system leading to dilatation of external and internal carotid arteries.
