title: [Footballer's migraine instead of concussion].
abstract: METHODS
  Our patient, a 27-year-old amateur soccer player, was hit hard against the head by a ball. Within a few minutes he developed visual and sensory symptoms followed by headache, nausea, vomiting, photophobia and phonophobia. After treatment with paracetamol and metoclopramide, he was free of symptoms within 24 hours.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This picture is stereotypically associated with migraine provoked by minor head injury. TTM may also occur without aura. Trauma triggered migraine is seen more frequently in children, adolescents and young adults. The cause of trauma triggered migraine is unknown. Treatment of the headache and nausea with common analgesics and anti-emetic drugs might be effective. Proper explanation and reassurance are most important.
