What department should I visit for headaches and insomnia?

Headache and insomnia are common symptoms, and patients can choose the appropriate department for consultation based on their specific condition. Generally, the following departments can be considered: 1. **Neurology Department**: If headache and insomnia are caused by neurological diseases, such as cerebrovascular disorders (e.g., cerebral thrombosis, cerebral infarction), neuralgia, or neurovascular headaches, the neurology department should be the first choice. Neurologists will perform a series of examinations, such as brain MRI and electroencephalogram (EEG), to assess brain function and make a diagnosis. 2. **Psychiatry/Psychiatric Department**: If headache and insomnia are caused by emotional issues such as mental stress, anxiety, or depression, visiting the psychiatry department is appropriate. Psychiatrists can offer non-pharmacological interventions such as psychological counseling and cognitive behavioral therapy to help patients alleviate emotional problems, thereby improving symptoms of headache and insomnia. 3. **Emergency Department**: If symptoms of headache and insomnia suddenly worsen and are accompanied by severe discomfort or potentially life-threatening emergencies (e.g., cerebral hemorrhage, cerebrovascular disease), immediate consultation at the Emergency Department is necessary. Patients experiencing headache and insomnia should choose the appropriate department based on their individual condition and undergo standardized treatment under the guidance of a physician.
