    Summary

    Headaches are common after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and can persist. Effective management of posttraumatic headaches involves education, medication, and potentially multimodal therapies.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Trauma Care
    • Pain Management

    Background:

    • Headaches are a frequent complaint following concussion or mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
    • The underlying pathophysiologic changes post-injury contribute significantly to the development of posttraumatic headaches (PTH).
    • PTH often mimics migraine or tension-type headache presentations and is notable for its persistence compared to other injury-related pain.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the commonality and characteristics of posttraumatic headaches.
    • To discuss factors influencing PTH, such as pre-existing conditions.
    • To outline current and potential management strategies for PTH.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of posttraumatic headaches following mild traumatic brain injury.

  • Discussion of diagnostic considerations and influencing factors.
  • Overview of pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatment modalities.

    • Main Results:

    • Posttraumatic headaches are common after mTBI and can persist long-term.
    • Pre-existing migraines and mood disorders can complicate PTH management.
    • Patients are at risk for medication overuse headache (MOH) with frequent abortive treatment.

    Conclusions:

    • Effective management of PTH requires early education and adherence to headache hygiene principles.
    • Treatment options range from abortive and preventive medications to intravenous therapies and multimodal approaches for persistent cases.
    • Multimodal treatments, including physical rehabilitation and cognitive-behavioral therapy, are beneficial for chronic PTH.
