COMMON NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS WE TREAT

MIGRAINES

A migraine is a headache, usually moderate to severe, characterized by throbbing pain on one side of the brain. Many people also experience nausea, vomiting, and increased sensitivity to light and sound.

CLUSTER HEADACHES

Cluster headaches are relatively uncommon compared to other types of headaches. They cause excruciating pain that often occurs in the same pattern each time. These headaches strike in groups or clusters, with each episode lasting an average of 1 to 3 hours. The frequency can range from once every other day to several times a day.

POST-TRAUMATIC HEADACHES

Post-traumatic headaches result from muscle tension during an injury or constriction of blood vessels, which can impede proper blood flow to the head. The severity of these headaches, which can feel similar to migraines, can vary from mild to severe.

CERVICOGENIC HEADACHES

Cervicogenic headaches (CGH) are characterized by unilateral neck pain. They are typically chronic and recurrent, often starting with neck movement. A decrease in neck range of motion frequently accompanies them. These headaches are commonly mistaken for migraines, tension headaches, or other common headache syndromes.

PRIMARY STABBING HEADACHES

Primary stabbing headaches are sudden and intense, often described as feeling like an ice pick is being driven into one eye. The pain can be excruciating, and patients may experience temporary immobility.

WHAT CAN CAUSE OR TRIGGER MIGRAINES & HEADACHES?

While there are many potential causes, below are just a few common triggers that kick off unwanted headaches and migraines.

  • Genetics and Family History: Some migraines are linked to family history and genetics. If you have family members who suffer from migraines, your risk of experiencing them is significantly increased.
  • Dietary Factors: Skipping meals, consuming less caffeine than usual, or drinking excessive alcohol can all contribute to the onset of a migraine.
  • Weather Changes: Fluctuations in weather, including changes in humidity, air pressure, and temperature, can trigger headaches and migraines.
  • Sleep Patterns: Alterations in your sleep routine, such as sleeping too much or too little, can provoke headaches and migraines.
  • Anxiety and Stress: Migraines may occur when you finally relax after a period of high stress and anxiety.
