Should you seek treatment for frequent migraines?

Patient's question:

Lately, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I see a neurologist. Should I seek treatment for frequent migraines?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! Headache is a very common symptom, and many diseases can cause headaches. I suggest you go to the hospital to have a cranial CT scan to rule out several diseases of the brain. If the CT is normal, then most headaches, especially pain in the temples and above the ears, are likely to be tension headaches. Migraines are caused by poor rest, overtime work, or excessive overthinking, leading to a lack of nutrients for the head nerves, such as vitamin B1 and vitamin B12.
