Types of Headache Pain & Symptoms

 

At our Atlanta pain clinic, the AIM staff can treat many different types of chronic headaches. While headaches are classified in many different ways, some of the most frequent types that we treat include:

Tension Headaches

Tension headaches may be chronic or episodic. Chronic tension headaches can last for hours and may even be continuous. Headaches are considered chronic if the patient suffers them for 15 or more days per month for three consecutive months. Episodic tension headaches occur less than 15 days per month.

 

These headaches can be difficult to distinguish from migraines. However, the experts at AIM can get to the bottom of your chronic headache pain. They can also provide you with a personalized treatment plan guided by their decades of experience.

Cluster Headaches

Cluster headaches are characterized by rapid onset of symptoms. They may be accompanied by nausea, as well. Additional symptoms include pale skin, swelling around the affected eye, droopiness of the eyelid, and restlessness.

 

The knowledgeable team at AIM have experience treating cluster headaches. They can recommend holistic therapies that may provide relief or even eliminate symptoms altogether.

Migraine Headaches

The symptoms of migraines divide into four stages. The stages include prodrome, aura, attack, and post-drome. However, not all patients experience all four stages.

 

Patients may suffer neck stiffness, fluid retention, mood changes, and even food cravings during prodrome. Prodrome occurs a day or two before the onset of the migraine. During aura, patients may experience various phenomena. This may include a loss of vision, bright spots, or even difficulty speaking.

 

The migraine attack itself is accompanied by nausea, vomiting, light sensitivity, and throbbing pain. The pain may occur on one or both sides of the patient’s head. In the postdrome phase, many patients feel drained. Others may feel excited and relieved that the pain has subsided.

Sinus Headaches

Types of TMJ Pain & Symptoms

 

TMJ pain is generally linked to issues within the joint or muscle of the jaw.

Joint-related TMJ

Muscle-related TMJ

While disorders of the muscle or joint can cause TMJ, most cases affect both. That is why you need a care team that takes a holistic approach to treating your condition. At our Atlanta TMJ clinic, the AIM team of doctors will address every facet of your condition. This strategy will provide the best possible patient outcome with the goal of short-term and lasting relief.
