What are the ways that you can treat migraines?
You know, when I work with a patient I always want to make sure it's tailored to improve
their quality of life. And so it's always a two-way street on how we work with each
other to come up with an outcome that works well for them.
There are two major ways I approach it.
One, when someone has a headache we've got to help them to have an effective way to get
rid of it quickly because that can get them home from work, it can disturb their home
life, so we got to have effective, quick medications and treatments to get rid of a headache once
they've got it.
And then, for those poor, unfortunate folks that get them so frequently, another strategy
we always have to look at doing is what can I do ahead of time to make sure I don't even
get the headache in the first place. And for those, we have a wide-array of medications,
relaxation techniques and other things that we can do beyond just trying to avoid someone's
triggers so that they don't get the headache in the first place.
