Headache Nexus Letters

TBI or traumatic brain injury (often times called a concussion) can lead to migraine headaches.  Service members will often notice that they started developing recurrent headaches after a TBI.  This is often overlooked and underreported so a nexus letter may be helpful in compiling the evidence, making your claim much stronger.

 There is ample medical evidence that supports the connection between tinnitus and migraine headaches.  During your free phone consultation we will discuss the frequency and intensity of your tinnitus symptoms as we gather information to craft your personalized headache nexus letter.  

 If you suffer from any condition that causes back, neck, or shoulder pain you are at a tremendous risk of suffering from tension headaches. Many veterans have successfully claimed headaches secondary to their musculoskeletal conditions with a thorough and well-reasoned headache nexus letter. 

Inflammation of the lining of one of the eight sinus cavities can cause a deep dull chronic ache around the eyes and the forehead. If you are experiencing headaches when your allergy and sinus symptoms worsen you may have a strong claim for headaches secondary to sinusitis or rhinitis. Headache nexus letters are helpful in getting the service-connection you deserve. 

 Headaches occur in temporomandibular joint syndrome and bruxism (teeth grinding) because the pain caused by swelling and inflammation in the temporomandibular joint is amplified by the nerves and muscles of the face, head, and neck. Spasms and irritation of the face, head, and neck muscles can cause tension headaches and migraine headaches. A detailed nexus letter strengthens your claim by clearly explaining how and why this happens and how it relates to your service. 

 50% of veterans who suffer from PTSD also experience migraine headaches. Our psychiatrist provides high quality, personalized headache nexus letters that have helped veterans get headache conditions service connected.
