Headaches |
Headaches are very common problems. They can have many causes. The most common types of headaches are migraines and so-called tension headaches. Most headaches improve with treatment. It is only the rare patient who has an underlying brain lesion (tumor, aneurysm, etc). After first taking a detailed history from our patients and a neurological examination we determine whether any more tests are necessary — or sometimes review the expensive and usually negative brain scans, MRIs, etc. done elsewhere with the patient. We use a combination of diet, massotherapy and medications to help our patients with headaches. |
