Register for Our New Update on Headaches Course!
This brand new course provides the detailed, practical advice you need to create patient-specific treatment plans.
Headaches are an extremely common symptom among people of all ages. The vast majority of headaches are benign and self-limited. However, there are headaches that indicate serious and even emergent medical conditions. Thus, all clinicians must be competent to differentiate benign from potentially life-threatening headaches. Additionally, many of the headaches with a benign origin can either be treated by a primary care clinician, such as tension headaches, or referred to the appropriate professional, such as an optometrist for eye-strain headaches.
This course provides the learner with an overview of headache presentations and etiologies, reviews assessment approaches and treatments, and delineates the presentations suggesting benign from life-threatening headaches that require emergent assessment.
