Khloe Kardashian just revealed about her health battle that left her unable to lift her head and she says that it was scary.

The "Good American" founder Khloe Kardashian, 36, is the reality TV star for the past 13 years but fans might not be aware about her health issue that plagued her since childhood. Khloe has been aching from migraine that has left her unable to move her head and even see during her most frightening episodes. 

The "Keeping Up With The Kardashian" starlet opened up to prevention.com about her migraine beginning when she was just 12 years old. Her migraines made her so embarrassed that she couldn't even open up to her family members about it. Khloe said, "I vividly remember how I felt, but mainly I remember how everyone told me that I wasn't feeling what I felt. People would always say, 'Oh, it's just a headache.'" 

"That's the stigma with migraines, that it's just a headache. And being 12 years old, and at that time no one in my family experienced migraines, I was embarrassed to say when I was suffering from one." Khloe added. She said that she spent her teens incapacitated in bed when she had migraine attacks she would suffer in silence. "I would not be able to lift my head up, and being that young, it was scary," she said.

After years of keeping it to herself, Khloe sought the help of her mum Kris Jenner's friend, who was also suffering from migraines like her. Then she was sent to the neurologist and underwent a brain scan, and after a number of scary outcomes, she was found to be suffering with migraines. Khloe still has these episodes where she is extremely responsive to light and scent as there's no cure for migraines, she can only undergo treatment.

Khloe stated that her migraines can cause vision impairment, uncontrollable shaking, and nausea. She also revealed that COVID-19 pandemic has triggered her symptoms as she has stopped working out to de-stress. 

The "Good American" designer is more plagued with the fact that she cannot be more playful with her two-year old True Thompson. We wish for Khloe's better health and may she have strength to fight with it and give as much time to her daughter.
