    AbstractHeadache is consistently one of the most common complaints reported by patients in the medical setting worldwide. Headache can be a symptom of another condition or illness, secondary to the disruption of homeostasis, or can be a primary disorder with inherent variability and patterns. Headache disorders, whether primary or secondary, can cause significant disability and loss of quality of life for those affected. As such, it is important for primary care providers to feel confident evaluating and treating patients with headache, especially given the limited access to Headache Medicine subspecialists.Published by Elsevier Inc.
