Chronic Tension Type Headache

Chronic Tension-type headache (CTTH) is the most common primary headache disorders which is long lasting and appears about more than 15 days per month. A tension headache is generally a diffuse, mild to moderate pain in your head that's often described as feeling like a tight band around your head which is the most common type of headache, and yet its causes aren't well-understood. Numerous studies have been used different radiological tests for assessment of cranial thickness like A-mode ultrasound, CT and MRI to detect this condition. Treatments for tension headaches are available. Managing a tension headache is often a balance between fostering healthy habits, finding effective nondrug treatments and using medications appropriately. A medicine called amitriptyline may help to prevent the headaches from occurring. There was no correlation between total cranial vault thicknesses with sex, age or body weight. There were no previous trials correlating tension headache and the thickness of the skull vault.
