Understanding headaches
Some headaches are associated with neck tension or musculoskeletal problems, but headaches have many possible causes. New or unusual headaches should be evaluated carefully.
Symptoms people may notice
- Headaches associated with neck tightness
- Symptoms that change with posture or movement
- Recurring tension-type patterns
How chiropractic evaluation fits
Dr. Keith evaluates the history, movement, involved joints and soft tissues, and neurologic findings when relevant. If the problem appears appropriate for conservative chiropractic care, he will explain the options. If not, referral or medical evaluation may be recommended.
Seek medical care promptly when needed.
A sudden “worst headache,” new neurologic symptoms, fever, head injury, fainting or major change in pattern needs urgent medical assessment.
