Purpose Of Review:
To provide an updated review on cold stimulus headache.
Recent Findings:
Age, type of stimulus, comorbidities, and study design but not necessarily gender appear to influence the reported prevalence of cold stimulus headache (CSH). Different cold stimuli appear to provoke different types of CSH. Ice water appears to provoke more frequent and higher pain intensity with a shorter latency compared to CSH provoked by ice cubes. Cold stimulus headache is very common unusual headache with limited literature. The severity, frequency, and latency appear to be influenced by the speed and size of the exposed area.
