A member asked:
I'm 21.and suffer from clinical depression and post traumatic headache. i want to be cured without medication. is it possible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is possible, but: After neuroimaging and physical examination have excluded structural damage, management depends upon the particular type of headache that is present. While most patients with headaches and post-traumatic syndrome will improve with time, some studies have shown that 20-24% of patients may have a persistent headache two to four years after the traumatic injury. Ask your PCP for more info.
