Headaches and Migraine Treatment in Hyderabad
At Fønixen, our team specializes in addressing the underlying causes of headaches and migraines. We prioritize the health and safety of our patients while ensuring prompt and meaningful service delivery.
Headaches can manifest on one or both sides of the head, as well as in the front or back. The pain may originate in one location and spread to others. Numerous factors can trigger or worsen headaches, including poor ventilation, hunger, eye strain, stress, excessive alcohol consumption, high blood pressure, and caffeine withdrawal.
Migraines are characterized by recurring episodes of debilitating headaches. Additional symptoms such as nausea and vomiting are also common. Between migraine attacks, individuals typically experience complete relief from symptoms.
Our assessment and treatment approach focuses on the upper neck region. Clinical studies have consistently demonstrated that the neck is responsible for headaches and migraines in over 80% of sufferers. Specifically, certain joints in the upper vertebrae can transmit excessive nerve signals to the brain stem, resulting in overload or sensitization. Through careful evaluation, we identify the problematic joints and administer targeted manual therapy to desensitize the brain stem. This approach aims to alleviate symptoms and provide long-lasting relief.
Treatment through Medication :
For many migraine attacks, Paracetamol or aspirin are effective options. It is crucial to take a dose as soon as possible after the onset of symptoms. By taking painkillers early, you can often alleviate the severity of the headache or even halt it altogether. Unfortunately, many individuals only resort to pain relief when the headache becomes unbearable, which is typically too late for the medication to work optimally.
In terms of effectiveness, anti-inflammatory painkillers such as ibuprofen and aspirin tend to be more potent than Paracetamol.
Injections: are a valuable treatment option for addressing chronic migraines and headaches. Specifically, Occipital nerve block and Sphenopalatine ganglion block injections have demonstrated their effectiveness in providing relief. Furthermore, BOTOX® injections have emerged as the pioneering and sole FDA-approved preventive treatment that has been proven to reduce the frequency of migraine and headache days each month.
