Understanding Headaches and Migraines
Headaches and migraines are common neurological disorders that affect millions of people worldwide. While headaches are characterized by pain or discomfort in the head, migraines are a more intense and severe form of headache, often accompanied by additional symptoms such as nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, and visual disturbances.
There are several types of headaches, including tension headaches, cluster headaches, and sinus headaches. Each type can have different triggers, symptoms, and treatment approaches. At Benjamin Shettell, MD, we specialize in identifying the underlying causes of headaches and migraines and providing targeted treatment plans tailored to your unique needs.
The Importance of Proper Diagnosis
Proper diagnosis is crucial for effective headache and migraine treatment. Our team of experienced healthcare professionals begins by conducting a comprehensive evaluation of your medical history, symptoms, and triggers. We may use advanced diagnostic tools and techniques to gain a deeper understanding of your condition.
With accurate diagnosis, we can develop a personalized treatment plan that combines evidence-based therapies, lifestyle modifications, and medication, if necessary. Our goal is not just to manage your symptoms but also to address the root causes of your headaches or migraines.
