Cervicogenic Headache Diagnosis and Treatment

Dr. Antonio Rezoagli begins with a review of the anatomical locus for cervicogenic headache, including the intersection of sensory nerve fibers from the trigeminal nucleus and the upper cervical roots, and their contributions to referred pain.
He moves on to the epidemiology and differential diagnosis of cervicogenic headache, including approaches to diagnosis and the use of anesthetic blockade to confirm a diagnosis. Dr. Rezoagli concludes by considering standard and experimental treatment options for cervicogenic headache.
