Post Traumatic Headache
By Nathan Zasler ~ 2006
The most common physical complaint in up to 70% of all people with a mild brain injury or concussion is headache. It also occurs after more severe brain injury, but is not reported as frequently for some unknown reason. When people seek medical care after a concussion, head trauma or neck whiplash injury, they are often diagnosed with "post-traumatic headache" (PTHA). This is really a catchall phrase. It tells nothing about the headache’s cause or how to treat it.
There are many different sources of head and neck pain, both inside and outside the head. The brain is not a source of pain as it has no feeling. There are many other areas of the body that can cause headaches. Sometimes it is easy to identify and treat these sites. Other times, it is far more complicated.
