Summary

This study compares two injection treatments for chronic migraine: one into muscle trigger points and one into a nerve in the neck. About 1,000 adults with frequent migraines will receive one of the two injections and be followed for two years. The goal is to see if the muscle injection works just as well as the nerve block, offering a simpler and safer option for pain relief.
