The document provides an overview of headaches and headache disorders. It begins by classifying headaches into primary and secondary types according to the International Classification of Headache Disorders. Tension-type headache is discussed in more detail, including its clinical features, diagnostic criteria, prevalence, pathophysiology, treatment options including pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches, and its high rates of comorbidity with mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. The document emphasizes screening headache patients for psychiatric symptoms.

This ideally requires limitation of acute therapy to nine days per month on average, and typically a maximum of two doses per treatment day.

Hinweis der Redaktion
- Almost half of the adult population have had a headache at least once within the last year. Headache disorders = Personal and Societal burden of pain, disability and economy. In the Global Burden of Disease Study, updated in 2013, migraine was found to be the sixth highest cause worldwide of years lost due to disability (YLD). Headache disorders collectively were third highest. A minority of people with headache disorders are diagnosed.
- Lack of knowledge among health-care providers is the principal clinical barrier. Worldwide, on average, only 4 hours of undergraduate medical education are dedicated to instruction on headache disorders. A large number of people with headache disorders are not diagnosed and treated: worldwide only 40% of those with migraine or TTH are professionally diagnosed, and only 10% of those with MOH. Poor awareness extends to the general public. Headache disorders are not perceived by the public as serious since they are mostly episodic, do not cause death, and are not contagious. The low consultation rates in developed countries may indicate that many affected people are unaware that effective treatments exist. Half of people with headache disorders are estimated to be self-treating. Many governments, seeking to constrain health-care costs, do not acknowledge the substantial burden of headache on society. They might not recognize that the direct costs of treating headache are small in comparison with the huge indirect-cost savings that might be made (eg, by reducing lost working days) if resources were allocated to treat headache disorders appropriately.
- Infrequent episodic TTH, with headache episodes less than one day a month âFrequent episodic TTH, with headache episodes 1 to 14 days a month âChronic TTH, with headaches 15 or more days a month
- Prophylactic headache treatment is indicated if headaches are frequent, long lasting, or associated with a significant amount of disability. Preventive treatment is appropriate for most patients with chronic tension-type headache (TTH), and for many patients with frequent episodic TTH. (See 'Indications and approach to treatment' above.) âThe evidence regarding prophylactic drugs for TTH is limited and inconsistent, but perhaps is strongest for the tricyclic antidepressants such as amitriptyline. (See 'Tricyclic antidepressants' above.) âOther agents have been studied for TTH prophylaxis, including serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (mirtazapine and venlafaxine) and anticonvulsants (gabapentin and topiramate). However, the benefit of these drugs for TTH prevention is not established, and more clinical trial data are required. (See 'Other antidepressants' above and 'Anticonvulsants' above and 'Tizanidine' above.) âBehavioral treatments for headache include biofeedback, relaxation, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (ie, stress management). The goal of these treatments is to prevent headaches by identifying and defusing behavioral headache triggers, and by using self-regulation to modulate involuntary and subconscious physiologic processes. (See 'Behavioral therapies' above.) âEMG biofeedback, alone or combined with relaxation therapy, appears to have modest effectiveness for TTH prevention. There is no convincing evidence to support an effect of cognitive-behavioral therapy or relaxation training alone for TTH. (See 'Effectiveness' above.) âFor patients with frequent episodic TTH or chronic TTH we suggest treatment with combined tricyclic antidepressant therapy plus stress management therapy rather than treatment with tricyclics alone or behavioral therapy alone (Grade 2B). (See 'Combined behavioral and tricyclic therapy' above.) âFor patients with frequent episodic TTH or chronic TTH who have a preference for pharmacologic treatment rather than behavioral therapy, we suggest tricyclic therapy with amitriptyline (Grade 2B). Guidelines for drug dosing and duration of therapy are given above. (See 'Tricyclic antidepressants' above and 'Dosing and duration of therapy' above.) âFor patients with frequent episodic TTH or chronic TTH who wish to avoid pharmacologic therapy, we suggest electromyography (EMG) biofeedback combined with relaxation therapy (Grade 2B). (See 'Behavioral therapies' above and 'Effectiveness' above.) âFor patients with frequent episodic TTH and chronic TTH who do not tolerate or desire more effective treatments such as amitriptyline and biofeedback, we suggest treatment with acupuncture (Grade 2B) or physical therapy that includes craniocervical exercises, osteopathic manipulation therapy, or inactivation of muscle trigger points (Grade 2C). (See 'Other nonpharmacologic therapies' above.)
