Headache & Neuropathies

Headaches and nerve-related symptoms require careful assessment, particularly when they are new, severe, recurrent or associated with weakness, altered vision, vomiting or changes in consciousness. We evaluate common headache disorders such as migraine and tension-type headache, while looking for secondary causes related to blood pressure, infection, medicines, vision, sleep or other medical conditions. We also assess numbness, burning, tingling, nerve pain and altered sensation caused by diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, thyroid disease, nerve compression and other neuropathies. Treatment is tailored to the likely cause, with imaging, nerve testing or neurological referral arranged when clinically indicated.
