" Adults aren&amp;#039;t the only ones who get these debilitating headaches; 5 to 10 percent of kids in the U.S. get migraines, too, says Marcy Yonker, MD, director of the pediatric headache program at Phoenix Children&amp;#039;s Hospital. The telltale signs: moderate to severe head pain (often on just one side) that lasts at least one hour and is worsened by routine activity like playing. The pain is also accompanied by nausea and/or vomiting as well as sensitivity to light and sound. Your pediatrician should be able to make a diagnosis based on the symptoms and by ruling out other problems by testing reflexes and muscle strength and examining the eyes. (An MRI is rarely necessary, says Dr. Yonker.)   For mild cases, children&amp;#039;s ibuprofen can help; more serious instances may require prescription drugs or a visit to a specialist. No one knows exactly what causes migraines, but &amp;quot;if you&amp;#039;re prone to them, there&amp;#039;s a 50 percent chance that your kids will get them at some point,&amp;quot; says Dr. Yonker.
