Migraine Headache treatment in Magdalena Contreras

Migraine headache, commonly known as migraine, is a type of recurring headache that is usually intense and throbbing, often on one side of the head, and that may be accompanied by additional symptoms.

Frequent symptoms:

• Pain that worsens with movement
• Sensitivity to light and sound
• Nausea and, at times, preceding visual disturbances

Factors that may play a role: Changes in sleep, stress, certain foods, hormonal variations, or fasting are associated with its onset in predisposed people.

Who to see? Although pain management may involve the anesthesiologist in specialized units, the underlying evaluation falls to neurology. When episodes are frequent or interfere with daily life, it is worth having a professional review it to guide the follow-up.
