I have headaches daily since I got into an auto accident in ‘99. I’ve had everything done such as trigger points, radio frequency, and all the medication. But the thing is that the headache is more sever on the left side of my head, maybe because hit was on the left side. Is pain medication my only choose, because that is what my doctors are doing for me now? What else I can do?
It sounds to me as if you could be experiencing post-traumatic headaches. Pain medications are often not your only option, only a doctor who has examined you can tell you that with certainty. There are many of medications that you may be able to take to help prevent these daily headaches depending on what kind of pain medication you're alredy taking. You know that it's possible that it could be compounding your problem by causing rebound headaches. Did you tell him that pain is more sever eon the left side of the head? I am suffering from migraines my self, so I went to see a specialist. A true specialist has reduced my migraines to about one a month, and it's quite manageable with triptans.
I am interested in finding out about radio frequency from some-one that's had the procedure.
