Migraine Headaches

Migraines, a form of severe headaches, can be debilitating for those who suffer from this condition. While anyone may deal with an occasional headache for various reasons, migraine headaches are recurring and tend to increase in intensity. Although the exact cause of migraines is not known, there are links to lifestyle, environment and genetic factors. Our team at Medici Orthopaedics & Spine help patients with migraine headaches find effective treatment options to manage head pain and improve their quality of life.

Migraine headaches tend to have a pulsing or throbbing sensation. Those with migraines may have episodes of pain that last for several hours or even a few days, affecting their ability to function normally. Migraines differ from tension headaches in their duration and severity. Often, there are also indicators that a migraine episode is about to occur. Patients notice tingling sensations, light flashes and vision changes that can alert them to a migraine attack before the pain begins. During a migraine attack, symptoms beyond head pain can include:

  • Light and sound sensitivity
  • Nausea
  • Blurred or double vision
  • Tingling or “pins and needles” sensations
  • Difficulty with speech

Severe migraines can make it impossible to concentrate, drive, work or even perform normal functions. Treatment is available at Medici Orthopaedics & Spine for controlling the frequency and intensity of migraines.

What our patients say

Kevin Madden

Love Dr. Sonny and his practice. I appreciate the time he takes with me. I would rather him run late and take his time with me than rush me through. Pain is not something that’s a pleasure to deal with. I appreciate his knowledge and compassion. The surgical center is great too. Their staff is so caring! Thank you Dr. Sonny!

Ruth-Anne Hayes

Dr. Sonny and his staff are incredibly compassionate. They offer solutions that promote healing and support a healthy lifestyle. I trust them because I see the results in my life but mostly because they care. They know me by name. I cannot recommend this practice enough.
