Visit Us to Find a Solution to Your Headaches
Headaches and migraines are common conditions that cause pain or discomfort in the head, scalp, or neck. While headaches may feel like a dull, aching pressure, migraines are typically more intense and often accompanied by symptoms like nausea, sensitivity to light or sound, and visual disturbances. Migraines can last for hours or even days and may interfere with your ability to function. Proper evaluation helps identify the cause and guide the right treatment approach.
Signs Indicating You Need to Visit Urgent Care:
- Sudden, severe headache with no known cause
- Confusion, dizziness, or trouble speaking
- Vision changes or double vision
- Headache following a head injury
- Weakness, numbness, or difficulty moving limbs
- Nausea or vomiting accompanying head pain
- Fever with stiff neck and headache
- Frequent or worsening migraine attacks
Headache-Related Conditions We Treat:
- Tension Headaches: Tension headaches cause a dull, aching pain that often wraps around the head and are usually triggered by stress, poor posture, or lack of sleep. Though not dangerous, they can interfere with your daily life if frequent or persistent. We help manage symptoms and recommend strategies to reduce recurrence.
- Migraines: Migraines are intense headaches often accompanied by nausea, sensitivity to light or sound, and visual disturbances. They can last from a few hours to several days and may severely disrupt your routine. We offer targeted treatments to relieve active migraines and medications to help prevent future episodes.
- Cluster Headaches: Cluster headaches are rare but extremely painful, often described as sharp, burning pain around one eye. They occur in groups or “clusters,” typically at the same time each day for weeks. These headaches may come with red eyes, nasal congestion, or restlessness. We can offer treatments to shorten attacks and reduce their frequency.
- Sinus Headaches: Caused by inflammation or infection of the sinuses, sinus headaches create pressure around the forehead, cheeks, and eyes. They often come with nasal congestion, facial tenderness, or fever. These headaches may follow a cold or allergy flare-up. Our team can provide relief through medications or decongestants.
- Other Headaches: We also treat other less common headaches, including hormonal headaches, exertion headaches, and more. These may be linked to triggers like menstrual cycles, physical activity, or extended screen time. Our providers take the time to understand your unique pattern of symptoms. From there, we create a plan that fits your lifestyle.
