Headache is one of the common clinical symptoms, which usually refers to the pain confined to the upper part of the skull, including the arch of the eyebrow, the upper edge of the ear wheel and the area above the line of the external occipital ridge. There are many causes of headache, which can be roughly divided into primary headache and secondary headache, and primary headache accounts for about 80% of headache patients. In recent years, the number of headache patients has been increasing significantly. In addition to causing pain to patients, headache also causes great harm to patients’ work, study and daily life. It is not only a problem for our people, but also a factor for the society. In 2001, WHO reported that headache, together with tetraplegia, mental disorders and dementia, have become the most serious chronic dysfunctional diseases. The two most common types of headaches are migraine and tension headache, which pose the most serious harm and burden to patients and society. Most headache sufferers have misconceptions and treat headaches as a symptom rather than a disease. This misconception leads to the occurrence of substance abuse. Experts point out that patients with drug abuse not only do not improve their condition, but also aggravate it and become drug dependent, which can eventually turn into drug abuse headache. China should strengthen the popularization of knowledge about headache, especially migraine, and advocate patients to go to regular hospitals to get out of the misunderstanding of blind treatment. How to safely and effectively treat headache prophylactically, improve the effect of acute treatment, and reduce the frequency of headache attacks, the degree of attacks and the impairment of patients’ social functions are the hot spots of headache treatment at present. At present, the treatment methods for headache mainly include Chinese medicine, Western medicine, acupuncture and tui na, etc. Acupuncture has the obvious advantages of unblocking the meridians, supporting the righteousness and eliminating the evil, no side effects and no drug dependence, etc. We adopt head acupuncture with the treatment of taking acupuncture points near and distal to the meridian to achieve better clinical efficacy, with Baihui, Fengchi, Sun, Hegu and local acupuncture points as the main points. Note: Some headache patients need to have head CT, MRI, head angiography and other examinations to exclude secondary causes such as brain tumor, brain cysticercosis, cerebrovascular disease and vascular malformation.
