Background:

Headache disorders are common but challenging to diagnose and treat.
Accurate diagnosis and management are crucial for patient outcomes and healthcare efficiency.

Purpose of the Study:

To simplify headache diagnosis for primary care physicians.
To facilitate early and appropriate referral for complex headache cases.
To improve the management of difficult headache disorders.

Main Methods:

A literature search was conducted on PubMed and Google Scholar.
Sixty-one English-language articles published between 1975 and 2022 were reviewed.
Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied to the selected studies.

Main Results:

Primary care physicians must understand headache classification.
Identifying "red flag" signs is essential for high-risk headache referrals.
Ruling out secondary, potentially life-threatening headaches is critical.

Conclusions:

A simplified diagnostic approach aids early referral and better management of headaches.
Awareness of red flags and secondary causes is paramount for primary care.
Specialized attention is necessary for headaches in geriatric and pediatric populations.
