For more than five decades, a 68-year-old patient lived with severe migraines that began when she was just 17. Despite seeing multiple neurologists and ENT specialists and trying countless medications, nothing provided lasting relief—until she met Dr. Undavia at NJ ENT.
During her evaluation, Dr. Undavia performed a nasal examination and immediately noticed a deviated septum. He explained that this structural issue could be contributing to her headaches and that corrective surgery might finally bring relief.
Further testing, including a CT scan, revealed that her sinuses were also filled with nasal polyps, which can cause chronic congestion, inflammation, and pressure. Dr. Undavia recommended sinus surgery to correct the septum and remove the polyps in the same procedure.
Just four weeks after surgery, the patient reported something remarkable — she hadn’t experienced a single migraine since.
This life-changing result highlights how sinus and structural problems in the nose can sometimes be the root cause of chronic headaches. By correcting these underlying issues, patients can find dramatic, lasting relief.
