Migraine can cause moderate to severe head pain, often with nausea or sensitivity to light and sound. Some people experience visual or sensory warning symptoms called aura. Your provider will review the pattern, triggers, associated symptoms, medications, and medical history. A treatment plan may include trigger tracking, lifestyle measures, symptom medication, prevention, and referral when needed. Call 911 for a sudden severe headache, new neurologic symptoms, confusion, fainting, seizure, or a headache unlike prior headaches.
