Abstract des Autors

Exercise-induced headaches are usually of the vascular or tension types, but they can manifest serious organic disease. A complete physical and neurologic examination is there fore crucial, and a CT scan or an MRI is warranted, as well. Treatment of exertional headaches will vary with the diagnosis and the frequency and severity of the attacks. Although some patients find relief with behavioral approaches, many will need medication. Some medications may affect athletic performance. Verf.-Referat
