Q: i get a migraine whenever i wear my mask but my work and school requires me to. is there anything i can do?

: If you indeed suffer from migraine, multiple triggers can provoke the headaches, and a mask is but one. Would recommend preventative treatments which can be OTC or prescription. You could have this handled by your local doctor, or our HT team could do a virtual consult (www.connect@healthtap.com)
