Primary versus Secondary Headache

Headache is the symptom of pain anywhere in the region of the head or neck. There are a number of different classification systems for headaches. The most well-recognized is that of the International Headache Society.

There are more than 200 types of headaches and the IHS have laboriously developed a diagnostic classification, the ICHD3, in order to help healthcare practitioners in this field identify and treat the appropriate headache condition.
