title: [Headache as a warning symptom].
abstract: Chronic headache is an independent clinical picture. Headaches are to be interpreted as a warning sign from the body until this is excluded through differential diagnostics. The clarification and the initial treatment should be carried out by a neurologist to ensure sufficient diagnostic certainty.
