Many people suffer from chronic headaches. Fortunately, there is help available. Pain Management Center of Lansing (PMCL) provides effective headache management and treatment options that are tailored to the needs of each patient. Headaches differ from patient to patient and can be caused by many different factors. Additionally, pain response also differs from patient to patient. Pain management specialists offer interventional procedures for pain management to address many types of acute and chronic pain, including the alleviation of headaches. By working closely with headache specialists, we can develop a pain management plan to alleviate your particular type of headache pain.
It is estimated that 45 million Americans are suffering from chronic recurring headaches (headaches occurring more than 15 days per month), and there are many different types. These may include tension type, migraine, trigeminal neuralgia, cervicogenic headaches, and other facial pain/headaches. Some headaches are due to family history or environmental factors, and others may come about from psychological factors such as stress. The headache spectrum also varies significantly in terms of frequency and pain. While some headache sufferers get a headache once every few years, others experience headache pain every day for years. Sometimes the pain is mild, while headaches such as migraines can have a debilitating effect, leaving some sufferers bedridden until the headache subsides.
After a thorough review of your headache pain, its frequency, severity, your pain threshold and response, and the possible causes, Pain Management Center of Lansing (PMCL) will work together with you to find a plan that works best. Additional support for those suffering from headaches can be incorporated into a more comprehensive pain management plan, with options for biofeedback, relaxation techniques, and other proven methods to address chronic headache pain.
