Has any info been studied questioning closed head injuries that may have initially triggered episodic or chronic CH's? If anybody has a link or info, please post.

Searching archives can be enough to bring on a CH itself sometimes. Understood, but if there is a link, please post. Thanks. Gregg in Las Vegas

The sufferers of the worst pain that humans endure, are very rare. Their very real hopes for the relief of this pain lie almost completely with each other.

Everyone looks for an excuse... a common link... CH'ers common link is a deformed HYPOTHALAMUS.........(thingy in your brain)
If you have that then some things can trigger your CH's...ie: MAYBE a wack on the head. for some people.. You were probably gonna get them anyway even if you didn't bonk your head............... sorry Ree

Errr Ree, I understood that the hyperthalmus idea was clarified! Goadsby admited that he only found enlarged grey matter in the hyperthalmus DEURING a HA. Thus one can as easily say the HA enlarges the Hyperthalmus as the hyperthalmus is the problem. Feel free to correct me if you think I have misunderstood.

No head injuries here, except the ones I have caused myself while in CH.
Maybe I should start a post about head injuries post CH? Self afflicted headbangers

Cluster headache following head injury: a case report and review of the literature.
Turkewitz LJ, Wirth O, Dawson GA, Casaly JS.
Midwest Center for Head-Pain Management, Troy, Ohio 45373.
A relation between head trauma and cluster headache is frequently described in the literature. The percentage of cluster patients with a history of head injury is approximately 16.5 when several large studies are reviewed. The present paper reports another case where there is close proximity between head injury and the onset of cluster headache. A review of the literature attempts to document the supposition that there is indeed a causal or precipitous role for head injury in cluster cephalgia pathogenesis.

Cluster-like headache and head injury: case report.

Dipartimento di Science Neurologiche, Universita La Sapienza di Roma.
This appears to be the first report of cluster-like headache secondary to post-traumatic subdural hematoma. A 39 year old man consulted us for cluster-like headache on the right side following an injury to the right frontotemporal region some 45 days before. A CT scan revealed a chronic subdural hematoma in the right frontotemporal region. We discuss the possible relationship between the head injury and the headache and suggest the value of CT scanning in patients with cluster headache.
