Common Types of Headaches We Treat

Understanding the type of headache you are experiencing is the first step toward effective treatment. Our primary care physicians are skilled at diagnosing and helping you manage:

  • Tension Headaches: The most common type of headache, often described as a tight band of pressure around the head. They are frequently triggered by stress, muscle tension, or fatigue.
  • Migraines: A more severe type of headache, often characterized by a throbbing sensation on one side of the head. Migraines can be accompanied by symptoms like nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound.
  • Cluster Headaches: These are rare but extremely painful headaches that occur in “clusters,” or a series of attacks. The pain is usually located around or behind one eye.
  • Sinus Headaches: Pain and pressure in the face and forehead caused by inflammation in the sinuses, often a symptom of a sinus infection.

Our Comprehensive Approach to Headache Care

At FloridaMD Clinic, our goal is to identify the root cause of your headaches and provide a personalized plan to manage them.

  • Detailed Evaluation: We start with a thorough review of your symptoms, including the frequency, duration, and intensity of your headaches, as well as potential triggers. We will also discuss your medical history and lifestyle.
  • Accurate Diagnosis: Based on your evaluation, we will diagnose the type of headache you have. We may also recommend a physical examination and, if necessary, order diagnostic tests to rule out other underlying conditions.
  • Personalized Treatment Plans: Your treatment plan may include a combination of strategies, such as over-the-counter or prescription medication, lifestyle modifications, stress management techniques, and guidance on identifying and avoiding triggers.
  • Preventive Care: For chronic or severe headaches, we focus on preventive strategies to reduce the frequency and intensity of future attacks. This may include a long-term medication regimen or the development of a routine to help you manage your triggers.
  • Specialist Referrals: If your condition requires specialized care, we will refer you to a neurologist or other specialist within our network to ensure you receive the most appropriate treatment.
