Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

I have been experiencing debilitating migraines that greatly affect my daily life. The pain is intense, typically on one side of my head, accompanied by throbbing sensations and sensitivity to light, sound, and smells. Triggers such as stress, specific foods, and disrupted sleep patterns have been identified. These migraines can last for hours or even days, leaving me exhausted and unable to perform my regular activities. Could you please provide treatment recommendations to help manage and decrease the frequency and severity of my migraines?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

Some treatments for migraines include analgesic drugs to reduce pain, as well as avoiding trigger factors by managing sleep hygiene and maintaining a healthy diet.

 

Thanks
