Description

BACKGROUND

• Cervicalgia, or chronic neck pain, remains an understudied and undertreated comorbid condition in patients with headache disorders that benefits from both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatment profiles.

• Cervicogenic headaches present a significant global healthcare burden, with estimates projecting up to 4.1% of the global population and 20% of headache complaints are attributed to cervicalgia (Fernandez et al. 2020).

• What is the global demographic, treatment, and migraine preventive profile of cervicalgia in patients with either concurrent migraine (CM) or tension-type (CT) headaches?
