Effective tension-type headache treatment involves both medication and non-drug therapies. Chronic cases require a multidimensional approach, often including antidepressants and complementary therapies like biofeedback or acupuncture.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Pharmacology
  • Rehabilitation Medicine

Context:

  • Tension-type headache (TTH) is a prevalent neurological disorder.
  • Management strategies vary significantly between episodic and chronic TTH.
  • Understanding the multifactorial pathogenesis is key to effective treatment.

Purpose:

  • To present a comprehensive overview of current treatment modalities for tension-type headache.
  • To differentiate therapeutic approaches for episodic versus chronic TTH.
  • To highlight the importance of a multidimensional strategy for chronic TTH.

Summary:

  • Episodic TTH and acute exacerbations of chronic TTH are managed with analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
  • Chronic TTH management necessitates a multidimensional therapeutic approach, often starting with antidepressant medication (thymoleptics).

  • Adjunctive non-drug therapies, including EMG biofeedback, relaxation techniques, massage, physiotherapy, psychotherapy, and acupuncture, are recommended based on individual symptoms.

    • Impact:

    • Provides clinicians with a guide to evidence-based treatment options for TTH.
    • Emphasizes the need for personalized treatment plans, particularly for chronic TTH.
    • Suggests integrating pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions for optimal patient outcomes.
