When Headaches Become Migraines: Recognizing When It’s Time for Help
What Makes Migraines Different?
Migraines are more than just bad headaches. They often involve throbbing pain (usually on one side of the head), sensitivity to light or sound, nausea, and sometimes visual disturbances called auras. Attacks can last for hours or even days, leaving you unable to work, drive, or enjoy daily activities.
Many people experience migraines triggered by stress, lack of sleep, hormonal changes, certain foods, or weather shifts common in Southern California.
When Should You Seek Help?
Consider seeing a doctor if you experience:
- Frequent or severe headaches (more than a few times per month)
- Pain that interferes with work or daily life
- Migraines with aura or neurological symptoms
- Headaches that don’t respond to over-the-counter medications
