What Are Headaches?

Headaches are one of the most common pain conditions, affecting millions of Americans each year. While occasional headaches are normal, chronic or severe headaches can significantly impact your ability to work, enjoy activities, and maintain your quality of life. Headaches range from mild discomfort to debilitating pain and can present with various symptoms, including throbbing, pressure, sharp pain, or dull aching sensations in the head, face, or neck.

Common Types of Headaches We Treat

Our providers have extensive experience treating various headache types, including:

  • Tension headaches caused by muscle strain and stress
  • Migraine headaches characterized by intense, throbbing pain often accompanied by nausea and light sensitivity
  • Cluster headaches that occur in cyclical patterns
  • Cervicogenic headaches originating from neck problems
  • Secondary headaches resulting from underlying medical conditions.

Each type requires a specific diagnostic and treatment approach, which our physicians  and APPs are expertly trained to provide.

When to Seek Treatment for Headaches

You should consider seeking professional evaluation if you experience headaches more than twice a week, if your headaches are increasing in frequency or severity, if over-the-counter medications no longer provide relief, if headaches interfere with your work or daily activities, or if you experience new or different headache patterns. Our team will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine the cause of your headaches and recommend appropriate interventional pain management options tailored to your specific needs.
