摘要

Purpose of Review

To review the history and impact and burden of post-traumatic headache (PTH).

Recent Findings

PTH is a prevalent headache disorder that many healthcare providers encounter. Unlike more extensively researched primary headache disorders like migraines, PTH has not been as thoroughly studied, and there are fewer treatments specifically tested for it. A significant obstacle to conducting detailed population studies on PTH is the need for the headache to occur shortly after a traumatic event. Despite these challenges, PTH is recognized as a disabling condition with considerable effects on quality of life and economic impact.

Summary

PTH is a distressing and debilitating condition. Although there have been efforts to evaluate its personal and economic effects, these studies are limited compared to the more extensive research conducted on other primary headache disorders. More comprehensive epidemiological studies are needed.
