When to seek urgent care

  • Sudden severe headache
  • Headache with weakness, vision loss, confusion, or speech changes
  • Progressively worsening new headache

Modern migraine management

Effective care includes trigger analysis, acute medications, preventive therapy, and structured follow-up.
