If you’re one of the billion people affected each year by migraines, one of the most common neurologic disorders, you probably struggle regularly with more than just a painful headache. Poor sleep, vision changes, nausea, and trouble focusing are just a few additional symptoms that accompany most migraines.
Many people turn to napping, use oral medications, and try to avoid migraine triggers for temporary relief. Still, when these preventive measures don’t cut it, a better solution is to prevent the migraine headache before it starts.
Read on to learn more about Botox for migraines in Nashville.
What is a migraine?
A migraine is a severe headache that causes throbbing, pulsing, or pounding sensations that last anywhere between 4 to 72 hours. Everyone experiences migraines differently and at different frequencies.
How does Botox help migraines?
Most people think of aesthetics when they hear of Botox, because of its popularity with treating wrinkles. However, Botox is an FDA-approved neurotoxin that blocks muscle contractions. This property allows it to treat conditions like migraines and TMJ by hindering pain signals from reaching the brain once it reaches nerve endings.
Botox treats chronic migraines, so if you experience migraines and the associated symptoms at least 15 days out of each month, the team of trained medical professionals at IntraVenous Solutions can help you find relief with Botox for migraines in Nashville.
How long does Botox last?
Toxins generally wear off after 3 to 6 months. We encourage you to book another appointment as soon as you feel headaches returning. As you continue your injections of Botox, you can expect to see increasing relief. We encourage you to be patient, because it can take up to 6 months after starting injections to experience the maximum benefits.
