  • Title: [Headache in the general practice].
    Author: Freischmidt S.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 2023 Jun; 148(11):671-677. PubMed ID: 37216942.
    Abstract:
    Headaches are one of the most frequent causes of consultations in general practice. Of more than 350 known headache tendencies, tension-type headache and migraine are particularly common in general practice. Medication overuse headache (MOH) is also common but rarely diagnosed. The medical consultation with a targeted anamnesis is the cornerstone of the diagnosis and correct classification. A detailed neurological examination completes the basic diagnosis. Additional laboratory and instrumental diagnostics follow in cases of atypical headache or clinical suspicion of secondary headache. This article focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of Tension-type Headache, migraine and Medication Overuse Headache.
