Headache & Migraine Treatment
Headaches and migraines can range from mild discomfort to severe pain, affecting your daily life, work, and sleep.
At EveryMed, our experienced GPs provide accurate diagnosis and personalized headache treatment, helping you manage pain, reduce frequency, and improve quality of life.
Understanding Headaches and Migraines
Headaches can be caused by tension, stress, sinus issues, dehydration, or other medical conditions.
Migraines are neurological episodes often accompanied by throbbing pain, nausea, and sensitivity to light or sound.
We treat:
- Tension headaches – tightness or pressure around the head
- Migraines – severe, recurring headaches with additional symptoms
- Cluster headaches – intense pain around the eye or temple
- Secondary headaches – caused by underlying medical conditions
Early diagnosis ensures effective management and reduces disruption to daily life.
Common Symptoms
You should consult our migraine doctor if you experience:
- Throbbing or pulsating head pain
- Pain on one or both sides of the head
- Sensitivity to light, sound, or smells
- Nausea or vomiting
- Visual disturbances (aura)
- Stiff neck or shoulder tension
- Difficulty concentrating or performing daily tasks
Frequent or severe headaches require professional assessment to rule out serious causes.
Causes of Headaches and Migraines
- Stress or anxiety
- Poor posture or muscle tension
- Dehydration
- Hormonal changes

Identifying triggers is key to long-term headache management.

- Review your headache history and symptom patterns

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is a urinary tract infection (UTI)?
A UTI is an infection in any part of the urinary system, including the bladder, urethra, or kidneys, usually caused by bacteria. Women are more prone to UTIs than men.
2. What are the common symptoms of a UTI?
Symptoms include a burning sensation during urination, frequent urge to urinate, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, lower abdominal pain, and sometimes fever or back pain.
3. How does EveryMed diagnose a UTI?
Our doctors perform a physical assessment and may request a urine test to detect bacteria or blood. This helps determine the type and severity of the infection for proper treatment.
4. Do all UTIs require antibiotics?
Most bacterial UTIs require a short course of antibiotics to clear the infection. Our doctors prescribe the appropriate antibiotic based on your test results and health history.
5. Can UTIs go away on their own?
Some mild UTIs may resolve without treatment, but untreated infections can progress to kidney infections, which are more serious. Medical evaluation is always recommended.
6. How can I prevent UTIs?
Prevention includes staying hydrated, urinating regularly, wiping front to back, avoiding irritants like harsh soaps, and emptying the bladder after sexual activity.
7. When should I seek urgent medical care for a UTI?
Seek immediate care if you have high fever, nausea or vomiting, back or side pain, or if symptoms persist despite treatment, as these may indicate a kidney infection.
8. Can recurrent UTIs be treated?
Yes. Our doctors can assess underlying causes, provide preventive strategies, and in some cases prescribe low-dose or post-exposure antibiotics to reduce recurrence.
