A member asked:

Are there any good ways to help ease pain of migraine headaches?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Many choices: Traditionally, the triptans are best in stopping headaches, and many of these exist including relpax, (eletriptan) frova, zomig, treximet, etc. Ergotamines, cambia, dolovent, 100% oxygen, injectable compazine, might be tried. Best to avoid opiates, which can cause rebound and even chronic daily headaches.

Botox and Surgery: Long term relief of migraines can be achieved with botox. If you have a good response, you may be a candidate for surgery. Surgery has been shown to dramatically decrease the frequency and intensity of migraines. www.themigrainereliefcenter.com.
