Headaches belong to the most frequent sufferings. According to certain most modern epidemiological studies about 20% of adults have recurrent headaches, among them particularly migraine and tension headache. In recent years the interest in these conditions had increased resulting in a great number of research works. A great role is played by the International Headache Society, and the newly formed European Federation of Headaches. In 1988 a universally accepted classification, and diagnostic criterias were elaborated and have been accepted by the Polish neurologists. Tens or research centres are studying the problems in this field. The main directions of studies are-the role of neurotransmitters, the vascular system of the head, the mechanisms of autonomic regulation, the role of neurogenic bland inflammation in the generation of pain, and the psycho-emotional factors. A number of new clinical forms of headache have been described. Therapeutic possibilities have also increased (beta-blockers, calcium blockers, serotonin receptor drugs, eg. sumatriptan, microsurgery of neuralgias etc). This opens a new period for satisfactory advances in that rather marginal, as yet, area.
