Headaches and Migraines

Headaches are widespread, and nearly everyone will experience one at some point. Around 37 million Americans suffer from migraine headaches. While headaches can range from mild discomfort to severe pain, migraines are a more intense form of headache. People with migraines may experience additional symptoms such as nausea, sensitivity to light, and visual disturbances. An occasional headache is usually nothing to worry about, but chronic headaches, intense headaches, and migraines can lead to challenges in living daily life.

If you have patients with headaches that vary in severity, duration, and location, Pella Regional Health Center has a care team that can assist them. Visit our website or call us at 641-621-2201 to schedule an appointment.
