Migraine & Headache Treatment in New Delhi

Expert diagnosis and personalized treatment by a DrNB Neurology specialist.

Overview

Headache and migraine are among the most common neurological complaints. Tension-type headache, migraine and cluster headache each have distinct features and treatments — while persistent or changing headaches can sometimes signal an underlying problem that needs expert assessment.

A neurologist distinguishes primary headaches from secondary causes, identifies triggers, and builds acute and preventive plans — including modern migraine therapies and botulinum toxin for chronic migraine when indicated — to reduce attack frequency and restore daily function.

Symptoms

Pressing or tight pain across the forehead
Throbbing or pulsing pain on one side
Pain worsened by light or sound
Visual aura — flashes or zigzag lines
Nausea or vomiting
Neck and shoulder tightness
Daily or near-daily headache for weeks
Headache that wakes you from sleep
Reduced concentration and irritability

Causes

Stress & Posture

Prolonged screen time, poor posture and emotional stress are leading triggers.

Sleep Disturbance

Both insufficient and excessive sleep can provoke headache attacks.

Dehydration & Diet

Skipped meals, caffeine swings and dehydration commonly trigger pain.

Medication Overuse

Frequent painkiller use can paradoxically cause chronic daily headache.

Underlying Conditions

Sinusitis, hypertension or rarely intracranial issues need ruling out.

Hormonal Changes

Menstrual cycles and thyroid imbalance can drive recurrent headaches.

Frequently Asked Questions

No — migraine is a distinct neurological disorder with throbbing pain, nausea, light sensitivity and disability. Tension headache feels like a tight band without these features.

If headaches occur more than twice a week, do not respond to simple painkillers, or are associated with vomiting, vision changes or weakness, a neurology consultation is recommended.

Yes. Many patients see a major reduction in attack frequency with preventive medication, trigger avoidance, and — for chronic migraine — botulinum toxin when indicated.

Frequent painkiller use can cause medication-overuse headache. A structured plan with a neurologist is far safer and more effective.
