Treating migraine headaches

By Emmy Siddons - email

CHESTERFIELD, VA (WWBT) - Dr. Judith McKenzie is treating migraine headaches at Primary Health Group-Johnston-Willis.

Become familiar with your triggers for migraines. Some common triggers are stress, certain food additives, like caffeine, and lack of sleep.

The key is to treat early. Use OTC anti-inflammatory medications or your prescription medication.

If the headache is unresponsive to medications or if the symptoms worsen, see your doctor.
