HEADACHE IN NEUROLOGICAL PRACTICE

Headache and facial pain are two of the most common symptoms encountered in everyday neurological practice.

Migraine and tension type headache are two most common types of headache in every day practice. Epidemiological studies have shown an annual prevalence of migraine in 6% of men and 15–17% in women. Th e 1-year prevalence of tension-type headache (TTH) ranges from 28 to 63% in men and from 34 to 86% in women.
