ABC of Headache

by Alison Frith (Editor), Alison Frith (Editor)

In its different presentations, headache is one of the most common symptoms seen by family practitioners. The difficulty is in diagnosing the cause of the headache so that the appropriate treatment is provided, or if referral to a specialist is the recommended course of action.
The ABC of Headache helps with this dilemma and guides the healthcare professional to look for the possible causes of presenting symptoms. Based on real case histories, each chapter guides the reader from symptoms through to diagnosis and management.
This new ABC is a highly illustrated, informative, and practical source of knowledge. With links to further information and resources, it is a valuable text for healthcare professionals at all levels of practice and training.

3.5 stars.

Helpful brief guide. I like to use this type of book as a quick reference.
It contains all the basics in one place and sometimes that's all you need.

This was a very quick read & i wont pretend that i totalyl understood the beginning, it's a slightly larger book than the usual for this series and full of good information about what to do for Migraines ! so i recommend reading this if not only for that part - i now understand why i had them as a child and have better understanding of why i get regular headaches now
