Abstract

International headache classification systems presently differentiate between more than 150 types of headaches and facial pain. This paper subdivides the most frequent types of pain according to the duration of typical manifestations. It deals with the most commonly occurring syndromes as well as those indicative of life-threatening conditions. In most of these clinical pictures, the diagnosis has to be established on the basis of a carefully evaluated case history. Indications for additional technical examinations are critically assessed.
