Migraine Treatment

Migraine treatment is a personalized process aimed at relieving migraine attacks and preventing future episodes. The treatment plan is shaped according to the frequency and severity of migraines as well as the patient’s lifestyle. Acute treatment methods help control pain and accompanying symptoms during attacks, while preventive approaches aim to reduce the frequency of attacks.

Migraine usually presents as throbbing pain around the neck, temples, or eyes. Symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound may accompany the pain. Some individuals may experience visual or sensory symptoms called “aura” before the migraine attack.
