About statistics:
This page presents a variety of statistics about Common migraine.
The term 'prevalence' of Common migraine usually refers to the estimated population

The term 'incidence' of Common migraine refers to the annual diagnosis rate,

a short-lived disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence,
but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence.
