[Facial pain--dysfunction of the neck joints].
The etiopathogenesis of headache (cephalalgia) is multifactorial and has not been definitely clarified yet. One of the most frequent causes of this type of pain are disorders in the area of the neck joints such as locking of joints in passive or active movements or conditions affecting the segmentally arranged muscles. Manual mobilization of the affected joint structures or, possibly, a therapeutic nerve block is the most helpful treatment measure.
