Headaches and Facial Pain
One of the most prevalent as well as debilitating forms of chronic pain – migraines – can also be one of the most difficult to treat. At Aspire Pain Relief Institute, our physicians are uniquely trained in effective interventional methods to treat ongoing headaches and facial pain with an emphasis on long-lasting, non-opioid options.
How are Headaches and Migraines Caused?
Headaches can be caused by a number of triggers – and this is part of the reason they are so difficult to treat. Whether the pain stems from an injury, muscle strains or overexertion, an imbalance of the spine, dehydration, or lack of proper diet and exercise, the “go-to” treatment has historically been based on masking the pain with medication.
However, while this may temporarily solve the problem, it doesn’t properly address it. Our board-certified physicians take a different approach – to discover the source of the pain itself – and to create a unique treatment plan based on that unique “pain generator.” In this way, we create specialized and personalized treatment plans that address your unique source of headache and migraine pain.
What Causes Face Pain?
Facial pain can be difficult to treat for a number of reasons and requires a nuanced understanding of the patient in order to determine an effective treatment plan.
For many patients, facial pain is caused by inflammation of the trigeminal nerve – a large, complex nerve that covers the face, including areas surrounding the eyes and the nose. When a patient experiences facial pain, they often first turn to a dentist, optometrist, or an EMT to find relief, not realizing that the pain is neurological.
