Migraine and Headache Pain Management
Headaches are classified into 12 categories, but the most common forms of headaches are stress or tension headaches. During a tension headache, pain is most often located near the forehead and/or the back of the head. As a result of contracting muscles, a tension headache often causes constricting pressure pain.
Migraines are more intense headaches and can be accompanied with nausea and vomiting, as well as light sensitivity and blurred vision. Migraine headaches give off a throbbing, pulsating pain usually found in the forehead or temple that can occur on one or both sides of the head.
A proper exam from a specialised physician is a must to avoid misdiagnosis.
