| thunderclap headache "worst headache of my life", onset within seconds | subarachnoid headache, medical emergency |
| headache associated danger signs, not just an everday headache | absence of similar HA previously, worsening pattern, focal neurologic s/s, fever, mental status change, rapid onset with strenuous exercise. Pain spreading to lower neck/shoulders. |
| Danger signs in patients with new headache | <5 yo or >50 yo, in a patient with CA, in a patient with lyme disease, in a patient with HIV |
| headache with papilledema | intracranial mass lesion |
| patients with migraine headaches and no neurological deficits don't need __ | imaging |
| patients with sexual activity need __ | imaging |
| indications for lumbar puncture | suspicion of an infectious or inflammatory etiology |
| migraine without aura is __ | most common |
| right to left cardiac shunt is associated with | migrain with aura |
| Calcitonin gene-related peptide | potent vasodilator |
| clinical manifestations of migraine | photophobia, phonophobia, dark, quiet room |
| neurologic deficit, precedes migraine, usually stops before onset of headache | aura |
| scintillating scotoma | loss peripheral vision/tunnel vision preceding migraine |
| numbness/tingling of the lips, face, fingers of one hand | cheio-oral aura |
| hypersensitivity of the skin during the migraine headache. | cutaneous allodynia |
| menstrual migraine usually due to decreased levels of __ | estrogen |
| cluster headache pain symptoms | maximal pain in a few minutes, deep, excruciating, continuous, begins in or around the eye or temple |
| Cluster headache clinical presentation | remains on the same side of the head during a cluster, can switch sides during the next cluster, restlessness, pacing, ipsilateral lacrimation, eye redness, stuffy nose, rhinorrhea, sweating, pallor, and Horner's syndrome |
| tension headache | most common, pressure or tightness, generalized, waxes and wanes, food triggers less common |
| acute sinusitis | uncommon cause of recurrent HA, generally in conjunction with fever and purulent discharge |
| autonomic features that are present in both cluster and migraine, often mistaken for Sinus HA | nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, tearing, color and temperature change, changes in pupil size |
| sinus HA specific symptoms | bilateral/peri-orbital, pressure-like, dull, nasal obstruction or congestion, lasts days |
| brain tumor headache | pain may follow maneuvers raising intrathoracic pressure (cough, sneeze, Valsalva), abnormal neuro exam, significant change in prior HA pattern |

| __ can have refered pain presenting as Persistent idiopathic (atypical) facial pain | nasopharyngeal cancer, or lung cancer |
| glossopharyngeal neuralgia | numerous analogies with trigeminal neuralgia with a different nerve distribution (radiates from oropharynx towards the ear) |
