Simply put, yes.
A disease is typically defined as an interruption of bodily structures or functions which are accompanied by symptoms that are not the result of physical injury.
About the Disease

According to the Migraine Research Foundation, migraines are the “3rd most prevalent and 6th most debilitating disease in the world.” Despite the fact 1 billion people around the world suffer from migraine headaches, little is known about the causes, triggers and risk factors associated with the disease.
