Mellick’s Multimedia EduBlog: Understanding Headache Classifications, Video 1

Creator: Larry Mellick, MD

Duration: 2:48

Many types and etiologies of headache and facial pain afflict ED patients, and sorting through them can be a challenge. Craniofacial experts themselves, in fact, do not attempt to remember the subtle differences between the various conditions causing craniofacial pain, but instead refer to the third edition of the International Classification of Headache Disorders, says Larry Mellick, MD.

This video shows a 9-year-old boy who crashed his motor bike and had a concussion, forehead contusion, and broken nose. A month later, he was still experiencing pain in his forehead, but rather than go right to CT or MRI, Dr. Mellick tried a different approach.
