Get migraine treatment and medication prescription online today

In order to diagnose a migraine, providers will typically assess your symptoms and medical history, including any allergies, sensitivities, or medications you may be taking. If your throbbing headache is accompanied by symptoms like nausea and sensitivity to light, sound, and smell, they may clinically diagnose a migraine attack.

Your provider will also ask about your symptom history to determine whether they are caused by tension headaches, migraines, or something else.

When a migraine hits, moving to a dark, quiet room can provide relief. A cold or warm compress on your head or neck can constrict inflamed blood vessels and relax muscle tension, and you should also stay hydrated and try to rest. OTC medications, such as NSAIDs or aspirin, can also reduce mild to moderate symptoms if you take them early.

For faster, more effective relief from acute attacks, a clinician on Sesame can prescribe medications like triptans, which are designed to stop a migraine from getting worse. Book a same-day visit with a top-rated provider to get a treatment plan without a clinic visit.
