| Summary |
"Knowledge is of the utmost importance in treatment of recurrent headache. In Managing Your Headaches, Drs. Mark W. Green, Leah M. Green, and John F. Rothrock explain what information you should record for your physician, what a physician is looking for in a neurological examination, and what you should and should not do to reduce the frequency and severity of your headaches. They discuss the effects of stress, psychological factors, possible food triggers, and environmental risk factors. The authors explain the symptoms of migraine, cluster and tension-type headaches as well as less common types. They address common concerns and misconceptions and explain current knowledge about headache causes in understandable terms."--Jacket |
