    AbstractWhiplash is a controversial concept. The real nature and prevalence of whiplash-related headaches are not known. To address this issue, the history of severe trauma was collected from occipital/nuchal headache-cervicogenic headache, migraine and tension-type headache patients attending a neurology office. The two last groups of patients had significantly less history of trauma in their medical records, with longer time span between the injury and the headache onset. Whiplash may induce preferably cervicogenic and tension-type headaches.
