DIAGNOSIS:

History taking plays the most important step in diagnosing a headache patient.
Primary or Secondary headaches are clearly differentiated by careful history taking.
Headache without other associated diseases or primary headaches include migraine headaches, tension headaches, and cluster headaches.
Headache associated with other disease or secondary headache include serious and life threatening diseases such as meningitis, encephalitis [commonly known as brain fever], cerebral aneurysms, extremely high blood pressure, and brain tumors.

INVESTIGATIONS:

Reading temperature
Complete blood count,
Thyroid function test,
Bleeding&Clotting time,
Brain scans[CT or MRI], and
Lumbar puncture (spinal tap) are the common investigationsto establish these diagnoses

TREATMENT:

Not all headaches require medical attention, and many respond with simple pain killers such as paracetamol or NSAID's(aspirin, ibuprofen,etc)
In recurrent unexplained headaches,the patients are advised to maintain a "headache diary" which carries the type of headache, associated symptoms,precipitating and aggravating factors etc.
Secondary headaches are treated as per the existing associated disease with the help of relevent investigations.

IN SIDDHA SYSTEM:

Headache is dealt under head and neck problem in Siddha system.
Siddha system of medicine have a detailed classification related the diseases of head and neck.
The Siddha text "PARARAJA SEKHARAM" describe head and neck problems in detail as "KABHALA NOIKAL".
The classifications given in the text are really amazing.
Diseses of Vertex,Brain, Ear, Nose, Eye, Cheek, Gum, Teeth, Tongue, Pharynx, upper & lower Lip, Forehead, Occipit, Eyebrow and Neck are finely classified and the individual treatments also said in detail.
Suspected causes for head and neck problems also explained in the said text.

IN MY CLINICAL PRACTICE:

Patients with headache of various aetiology are being treated in my clinic daily.
Case history of each and every patient is carefully recorded and then relevent investigations are carried out.
The headache is analised for Primary or Secondary type.
After getting exact diagnosis,the patients are being treated with powerful herbo-minaral Siddha medicines.
The patients with serious clinical signs are immediately reffered to proper equiped hospitals for emergency medical care.
Sinus headache,Migraine headache,Tention headache,One sided headache, headache associated with APD(Acid Peptic Disorder)and Cervicalspondylosis are successfully treated in Siddha medicine in a very short period of 40 days.
This medicine does not cause any harmful effects like gastric irritation,sedation or toxicity.
Also number of patients with chronic headache without proper diagnosis even after full investigation are specially treated here with individulaly made Siddha medicines.
I have got excellent results in almost all cases of headache with dramatic Siddha medicines.
Don't miss to get a Siddha cure in such difficult and challenging headaches.
