Is applying numbing medication directly to the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) area,while watching through the scope to make sure it's in the right place, a workableand effective way to treat migraine headaches immediately and 24 hours? 2. Is applying numbing medication directly to the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) area,while watching through the scope to make sure it's in the right place, a workableand effective way to improve patient‐reported outcomes?The 2‐month study requires: ‐ One virtual visit (on the computer) ‐ One visit to the office for placement of the numbing medicine under direct vision ‐ Daily headache diary entries that take less than two minutes to complete
