Nerve block shots tested to ease debilitating headaches

NCT ID NCT07497646

Summary

This study tested whether a series of injections that numb a specific nerve in the back of the head can reduce how often and how badly people get chronic migraines or tension headaches. 290 adults with these conditions received either the real nerve-blocking medication or a placebo injection over three months. Researchers measured if the injections helped people have fewer headache days and less severe pain.
