About
Headaches that return frequently or interfere with everyday activities may need more than temporary pain relief. Dr. Md. Bakhtiar Azam is an Assistant Professor in the Neurology Department and has a clinical focus on headaches. He holds an MBBS degree, BCS (Health), and an MD in Neurology. He sees patients at the Bangladesh Specialized Hospital, Dhaka, where people can seek neurological assessment for persistent or recurring head pain.
Headaches can vary in intensity, duration, and location. Some people experience pressure around the forehead, while others report throbbing pain, nausea, or sensitivity to light and sound. Migraine and tension-type headaches are common causes, though other medical conditions can also produce similar symptoms. Keeping track of when headaches occur, how long they last, and what seems to trigger them can help a doctor understand the pattern.
During a consultation, patients should describe their symptoms clearly, including any changes in frequency or severity. Previous prescriptions, test reports, and a list of medicines can provide useful background. Patients who experience repeated headaches despite treatment may benefit from a review of their condition and current medication plan. Treatment decisions depend on the symptoms, medical history, and findings from the examination.
Dr. Azam's neurology background is relevant to people seeking medical advice about recurring headaches. Anyone planning a visit to the Bangladesh Specialized Hospital, Dhaka should confirm his chamber schedule beforehand. A sudden, unusually severe headache, especially with weakness, confusion, vision loss, or difficulty speaking, requires urgent medical attention.
