Byrden ved primær hovedpine blandt børn og unge

Headache is one of the most common and disruptive pain manifestations in children and adolescents. This review examines the current evidence for the impact of primary headaches on well-being and quality of life in children with headaches. Several studies support that headaches cause a significant reduction in quality of life, which can be related to the headaches themselves and lead to limitations in family, social, and school activities. There is a need for more studies on well-being among children with headaches as well as a greater focus on other primary headache forms than migraine.
