Migraine Diagnosis
Migraine Diagnosis
- Medical history: The doctor asks in detail about the headache characteristics, triggers, symptoms, and family history of migraines.
- Neurological examination: The doctor will check reflexes, motor skills, sensory responses, coordination, and mental status to detect abnormalities.
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan: It produces detailed brain images to rule out tumors, strokes, structural anomalies, or infections.
- Computed tomography (CT) scan: This imaging test is used to detect bleeding in the brain, stroke, or masses that might cause migraine-like symptoms.
- Electroencephalogram (EEG): The test helps assess brain wave activity to rule out seizures or epilepsy if the migraine symptoms include loss of consciousness.
- Blood tests: They help detect infections, inflammation, thyroid problems, or blood clotting disorders that could mimic migraine.
- Spinal tap (lumbar puncture): This test is performed if infections like meningitis or subarachnoid hemorrhage are suspected as causes of sudden, severe headaches.
- Early diagnosis of migraine enables our doctors at SGVP Holistic Hospital to make a tailored plan for the treatment of migraine in Ahmedabad based on the patient’s condition and requirements.
