Should i be overly concerned about daily occurrence of migraine with aura for the last month?

Need to see doctor: A migraine headache that lasts for more than 3 days is called a status migrainosus. This often requires certain treatment regimens to help break the cycle of headache. If the headaches are new, or if they have changed in frequency or severity or if the nature of the pain is different from your "usual" migraines, you need to be seen by a neurologist. Imaging may be needed to rule out other causes.

You should: see an orofacial pain or headache specialist for diagnosis evaluation and preventative treatment. Any headache must be viewed as a valid medical disorder and the headache assessment must be comprehensive.
