Clinic for headache
How we diagnose and treat it
Your provider asks about the pain, when it started, how it feels, and whether anything like this has happened before, since that history is the biggest clue to what is causing it. We check for the warning signs of a serious headache and, once those are ruled out, treat the pain directly. That can include migraine medication, anti-nausea medication, fluids if you are dehydrated, and a quiet, dark room while the treatment takes hold. If you get frequent headaches, we will talk through triggers and point you to follow-up care.
Urgent care is a good choice when your headache is painful or stubborn but not sudden or severe, when it comes with sinus pressure or a cold, when a migraine is not responding to your usual remedies, or when you simply want relief today without waiting for an appointment. We can treat it and help you understand the pattern so the next one is easier to manage.
Your visit
What to expect at your visit
Walk in to any of our three locations and you are usually seen within about ten minutes. We treat the pain during the visit and send you home with a plan and any prescription. We accept most major insurance and offer fair cash pricing.
Emergency warning signs
When a headache is an emergency
Call 911 or go to the emergency room for the worst headache of your life, a headache that comes on suddenly and intensely like a thunderclap, or a headache with weakness, numbness, trouble speaking, vision loss, confusion, a stiff neck with fever, a seizure, or a recent head injury. These can signal a stroke, a bleed, or an infection and need emergency care right away.
Headache relief at home
What you can do at home
Rest in a quiet, dark room, drink water, use a cold or warm compress on your head or neck, and take an over-the-counter pain reliever early rather than waiting for the pain to peak. Try not to overuse pain medication, since that can cause rebound headaches.
