Headaches
• Headache is one among the most commonreasons patients seek medical attention.
• The gold standard for diagnosis and management of headache is a carefulinterview supported by neurological andgeneral medical examinations
(De Luca and Bartleson, 2010).(International HeadacheSociety Classification Subcommittee, 2004).
Common causes of headache
Primary headache• Tension –type 69%• Migraine 16%• Idiopathic• Stabbing 2%• Exertional 1%• Cluster 0,1%
Secondary headache• Systemic infection 63%• Head injury 4%• Vascular disorders 1%• Subarachnoid hemorrhage
< 1%• Brain tumor 0,1%

Classification of headaches
Primary(those not associated
with an underlying pathology)
Migraine
Tension Type
Cluster headaches
Secondary(those attributed to an underlying pathologic
condition)
infectious
neoplastic
Vascular, drug induced,
idiopathic.
Painful cranial neuropathies, other facial pains n other headaches
• By 1988, recognizing the need for improvement in headache classification, the International Headache Society (IHS) published a new system, the second edition of the International Headache Classification (ICHD-2)
• Recently International Headache Societyhad published ICHD, 3rd edition (beta version)
Primary headache
Migraine headache
Chronic neurologic disorder
Episodic attacks of head pain
And associated symptoms
Prevalence in US Women 18%
Men 6%
Estimated to be approximately 50%
Never seek medical advices
Treat themselves

Tension-type headache
Most common type
Prevalence of episodic type vary widely
(30-80%)
Studies shown-25% of TTH
have migraine-62% of
migraineurs have TTH

Cluster headache
Strictly unilateral headache
Usually occuring once or few times a day at
characteristic timeLasting for 15-180
minutes
Occuring in a series which last from several weeks to several months

(IHS criteria)
Secondary Headache• attributed to an underlying pathologic
condition :---Head and/or neck trauma.---Cranial or cervical vascular disorder ---Cranial nonvascular disorder---Infection.---Disorder of the cranium, neck, eyes, ears, nose, sinuses,
teeth, mouth, or other facial or cranial structure .---Psychiatric disorder
Painful cranial neuropathies and other facial pains
• Trigeminal neuralgia• Glossopharyngeal neuralgia• Nervus intermedius (facial nerve) neuralgia• Occipital neuralgia• Optic neuritis• Headache attributed to ischemic ocular motor
nerve palsy
• Tolosa hunt syndrome• Paratrigeminal oculosympathetic (Raeder’s)
syndrome.• Recurrent painful opthalmoplegic neuropathy.• Burning mouth syndrome (BMS).• Persistent Idiopathic facial pain (PIFP)• Central neuropathic pain

Trigeminal neuralgia. Clinical diagnostic criteriaThe picture can't be displayed.
The picture can't be displayed.
Unilateral severe painFelt in the distribution of the glossopharyngeal nerve, auricular n pharyngeal branches of the vagus
nerve.Occurs in the ear, posterior third of the tongue n tonsillar fossa.
Rare, 1/100 as common TN.Most frequently in middle aged men n women.
Majority idiopathic or related to neurovascular compression of cranial nerves.Tx, carbamazepine/gabapentin, intervention or surgical.
Glossopharyngeal neuralgia
The picture can't be displayed.
Characterized by sharp pain originating in the back of the head.Pain radiating into the distribution pof GON n LON n sometimes into the eye.Most cases are unilateral.Causes : idiopathic, trauma/compression to involved nerves.Tx : antiepileptic agents (1st line), intervention or surgical.

Diagnosis is the most important part in any branch of clinical practice for management of patient’s complains.
To reach the diagnosis1. Proper history2. Clinical examination3. Investigations
special subheading under investigation part, called diagnostic interventions or diagnostic nerve blocks which help us in finding pain generators.
Patient’S history•Age of onset,location,pain intensity,progression, character, duration,frequency,aggravating n relieving factors, associated features, aura symptoms, impact of daily activity.
Headache history
•Familial hemiplegic migraine•Secondary headaches
Family history
•Investigations•Medications•Any changes of character or pattern.
Past history of headache
Medicinal history
Comorbidities
Some medicines itself can cause headache: oral contraseptives, hormone replacement therapy, antihistamin,nitrate, etc. Medication overuse.,
History of Cancer, head trauma, asthma,high blood pressure,depression, Insomnia,Infection of dental, nose, ears.
Physical Examination
• General examination• Systemic examination : --CNSàhigher function
