Headache Diagnosis & Management
Inside View
Understanding the patterns of your headaches and identifying personal triggers are key steps in effective headache management. This may involve tracking your headaches, associated symptoms, and potential triggers in a headache diary.
Recurrent Dull or Sharp Pain
Headaches can manifest as either a dull, throbbing sensation or a sharp, piercing pain across different regions of the head, including the temples, forehead, back of the head, or around the eyes.
Sensitivity to Sensory Stimuli
Many sufferers report a heightened sensitivity to light (photophobia), noise (phonophobia), or strong odors, which can exacerbate the headache.
Nausea and Vomiting
Headaches, especially migraines, can be accompanied by nausea and, in some cases, vomiting.
Muscle Tension
A common companion to headaches is muscle tension, particularly around the neck, shoulders, and upper back, contributing to the cycle of pain.
Visual Disturbances or Aura
Some individuals experience auras or visual disturbances, such as flashing lights, zigzag lines, or temporary vision loss before a migraine onset.
Outside View
By employing an integrative care approach, Janus Health System aims to not only treat the symptoms but to delve deep into the fundamental causes and interconnectedness of your headache condition, providing a more thorough and effective treatment plan.
Stress and Anxiety
High levels of stress and mental strain can lead to tension headaches and exacerbate migraine conditions.
Poor Posture
Spending long hours in front of computer screens or smartphones can strain the neck and eyes, leading to headache.
Environmental Triggers
Changes in weather, altitude, or exposure to certain chemicals or pollutants can initiate headaches.
Other ENT Conditions
Sinusitis, allergies, and other ear, nose, and throat conditions can also lead to headache pain.
