Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to review and outline the similarities and differences in the treatment of athletes compared with that of other populations with a persistent post-traumatic headache after a concussion.

Recent Findings

After an extensive review of the literature and despite well over 2 million Americans experiencing post-traumatic headache (PTH) each year, a number of which will continue to experience persistent post-traumatic headache (PPTH). There is little evidence on the management of the disorder and essentially no evidence-based research when it comes to the management of athletes.

Summary

With little evidence available for the treatment of individuals with PPTH, be it athletes or non-athletes, the clinician will need to rely on their experience and the application of existing treatments for migraine and chronic migraine. Clearly, more research is needed, especially with respect to the management of athletes versus non-athletes.

创伤后头痛：脑震荡后持久性创伤后头痛的运动员与非运动员的临床护理：运动神经学家和头痛专家的观点。

目的

本文的目的是回顾和概述与脑震荡后持续性创伤后头痛的其他人群相比，运动员治疗的异同。

最近的发现

经过广泛的文献回顾，尽管每年有超过200万美国人经历创伤后头痛（PTH），但其中许多人将继续经历持续的创伤后头痛（PPTH）。关于疾病管理的证据很少，关于运动员的管理，基本上没有基于证据的研究。

概要

由于缺乏足够的证据来治疗PPTH个体，无论是运动员还是非运动员，临床医生都需要依靠他们的经验以及偏头痛和慢性偏头痛的现有治疗方法的应用。显然，需要进行更多的研究，尤其是在运动员与非运动员的管理方面。
