Journal of the Indian Medical Association 2014 Februrary
Headache is a common symptom in paediatric hospital practice, the causes may be primary or secondary. A study was conducted in department of paediatrics from May 2005 to February 2007 in order to find out common causes for recurrent headache in children. A total of hundred children in age range of 3-14 years were included in the study. Children with secondary headache were excluded from the study. Various clinical characteristics were studied and based on these, types of headache were categorised using International Headache Society criteria. The most common type of headache observed was migraine (46%) followed by tension headache (31%), psychogenic headache (8%), mixed migraine and tension headache (7%) and other non-specific recurrent headaches (8%). There was clear cut female preponderance in adolescent patients having migraine. Tension headache is becoming a matter of concern in paediatric age group probably due to more competitive and stressful environment.
