Migraines and breathing difficulties are two health conditions that can severely impact your quality of life and may even signal serious underlying issues. At Heights Emergency Room in Houston, we understand the urgency and discomfort these symptoms can cause. Our state-of-the-art facility is equipped to provide prompt and comprehensive care to help you manage these conditions effectively.
Migraines: When to Seek Emergency Care
Migraines are more than just headaches—they can bring debilitating pain and other symptoms like nausea, light sensitivity, and visual disturbances. While many people manage migraines with over-the-counter medications or prescriptions, there are instances when emergency care is necessary.
Signs You Need Emergency Care for Migraines:
- Sudden, severe headache, unlike anything experienced before.
- Migraines accompanied by vision changes, weakness, or difficulty speaking.
- Persistent nausea and vomiting that prevents you from staying hydrated.
- A headache following a head injury.
At Heights Emergency Room, we provide fast and effective relief for migraines, utilizing advanced diagnostic tools to rule out more serious conditions like strokes or aneurysms. Our treatment options include intravenous (IV) medications for pain relief, anti-nausea medication, and hydration therapy to help you recover quickly.
Breathing Difficulties: A Serious Concern
Breathing difficulties can range from mild discomfort to life-threatening conditions. Whether caused by asthma, allergies, infections, or other underlying issues, shortness of breath requires immediate medical attention.
Common Causes of Breathing Difficulties:
- Asthma Attacks: Narrowed airways causing wheezing and difficulty breathing.
- Respiratory Infections: Conditions like pneumonia or bronchitis can impede breathing.
- Allergic Reactions: Severe allergies (anaphylaxis) can cause swelling that restricts airways.
- Heart Conditions: Breathing difficulties may signal heart failure or other cardiac issues.
- Anxiety or Panic Attacks: Rapid breathing or hyperventilation linked to stress.
Your Health, Our Priority.
