ABSTRACT
Posttraumatic headache (PTHA), as the name indicates, is a general, descriptive term for headache that occurs posttrauma. The types of trauma do not necessarily need to include an actual blow to the head, or even loss of consciousness. The majority of patients who experience PTHA do not have an associated minor traumatic brain injury (MTBI); however, PTHA is one of the most common sequelae of MTBI, but not moderate or severe traumatic brain injury.
