Migraine and Chronic Headaches – When to See a Pain Specialist
Learn the difference between migraines and common headaches and when expert care is needed.

Headaches are common, but migraines are more severe and may include nausea, sensitivity to light, and throbbing pain. Chronic headaches can significantly affect work and daily life.
Treatment includes preventive medications, lifestyle modifications, stress management, and in some cases, nerve blocks or injection therapies. Early consultation helps prevent worsening symptoms and improves long-term outcomes.
