Pediatric Headaches

Robin Slover et al. Adv Pediatr. 2015 Aug.

Abstract

Pediatric headaches are common, and many may never require intervention by a health care provider. However, migraines can become more difficult to treat, especially if they become chronic daily headaches. Pediatric headache is a subjective and unique experience that requires attention to both psychological and physiologic components in diagnosis and treatment. A biopsychosocial, multidisciplinary approach, including both medication management and psychological treatment, is considered essential for effective management.

Keywords: Aura; Headache; Migraine.
