Suggest Treatment For Chronic Migraines With Painful Dents On The Top Of The Head

Hello, I am 22 and I have had a nonstop migraine since I was 11 (when I started to endure physical and verbal abuse). My migraines are usually dull but can have sharp pains sometime. Especially on the right side of my head. I have recently noticed some dents in the top of my head that are painful and a dent on the right side of my head where my worst migraines come from. I also have bad eye pain. I have been going to the chiropractor for back and neck pain and even though that issue has resolved, it has not helped my migraines. I have tried basically everything from Excedrin to Botox injections and nothing has worked. I was wondering if there were any other options for me. I would prefer not to take medicines daily.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

As first line management, you can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persist, better to consult a neurologist and plan for an MRI brain to rule out possible intracranial (inside the brain) causes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
