Zusammenfassung
Kopfschmerzen gehören zu den am häufigsten geäußerten Beschwerden von Patienten. Sie können ein Symptom darstellen, das auf zugrunde liegende Erkrankungen hinweist; diese reichen von einfachen Befindlichkeitsstörungen bis hin zu medizinischen Notfällen. Von diesen sekundären Kopfschmerzen sind idiopathische Formen abzugrenzen, wie z. B. Migräne oder Spannungskopfschmerzen. Wichtig ist die Differenzierung dieser Kopfschmerzsyndrome für eine gezielte Therapie. Kopfschmerzerkrankungen stellen eine Domäne der Neurologie dar, während Gesichtsschmerzen häufig primär von anderen medizinischen Fachrichtungen gesehen und betreut werden. Aus diesem Grunde werden zudem wichtige Gesichtschmerzen aus neurologischer Sicht dargestellt.
Abstract
Headaches are one of the most frequent outpatient complaints. Patients may describe a symptom indicating an underlying disease, which can range from an ordinary indisposition to a medical emergency. Despite these secondary headaches, there exist idiopathic forms, such as migraine and tension type headaches, which represent the most common types. In order to develop a specific treatment, the diagnosis of headaches and the knowledge of their etiology are very important for physicians. While headaches remain a neurological domain, facial pain syndromes are often seen and treated in other medical fields. Here clinically important facial pain syndromes are reported from a neurological point of view.
