    AbstractAlthough tension-type headache is at least as prevalent as migraine in children and adolescents, in contrast to migraine, childhood tension-type headache has received limited research attention. Follow-up studies have shown that migraine may reverse in tension-type headache and vice versa. In addition, children with frequent episodic tension-type headache may be at increased risk of chronic tension-type headache. It is very important to recognize these children and to intervene. Further studies are needed to clarify the pathophysiology of pediatric tension-type headache.
