UNSOM Health Watch: Migraine Headaches

Anne McMillin, APR

What is a migraine? How can you tell the difference between a headache and a migraine?  And what kinds of treatments are there?

Dr. J. Ivan Lopez gives us an overview of the signs, risks, treatments and prevention of migraine headaches. Lopez is a professor of neurology, medicine and pediatrics and is the Chair of the Department of Neurology at the University of Nevada School of Medicine. He also serves as the Director of the Institute for Neurosciences at Renown.

Leading this discussion is Anne McMillin of the School of Medicine at the University of Nevada.
