book describes Ice Pick Headaches, Diagnosis and Treatment and Related Diseases</p><p>I was informed of this type of headache by a patient who told me that he was diagnosed with Needle in the eye syndrome or ice pick syndrome after suffering sudden pain in the forehead above his right eye.</p><p>I have never heard of it and promptly look it up in my medical books.</p><p>I found that Ice pick headaches are called:</p><ol><li>Primary stabbing headaches</li><li>Idiopathic stabbing headaches</li><li>Jabs and jolts</li><li>Opthalmodynia periodica</li><li>Short-lived head pain syndrome</li><li>Needle-in-the-eye syndrome</li></ol><p>I could just imagine an ice pick being aimed at my brain or a needle going towards my eye.</p><p>Ice pick headaches are painful, severe headaches that happen suddenly.<br />They are often mentioned as feeling like a stabbing blow, or a series of jabs, from an ice pick.<br />They do not give any warning before striking, and can be excruciating and debilitating.<br />They are also short, typically lasting no longer than a minute.<br />Ice pick headaches can happen at any time, during sleeping or waking hours.<br />They may also happen multiple times within one day and travel from place to place in the head.</p><p>Causes</p><p>The underlying cause of ice pick headaches is presently not known but is believed to be linked with fleeting, short-term disruptions within the brains central pain control mechanisms.</p><p>While ice pick headaches were believed to be relatively infrequent, recent research shows that it happens in 2 to 35 percent of the population.</p><p>It also happens more often in women beginning at an average age of 28 years old.</p><p>Ice pick headaches happen in 2 forms, primary or secondary.</p><p>If they are primary, it indicates that they happen without any other apparent cause.</p><p>Disorders such as Bells palsy or shingles (herpes zoster) can cause secondary ice pick headaches.</p><p>People with migraine headaches or cluster headaches get ice pick headaches more often than the average person does.</p><p>Like ice pick headaches, cluster headaches do not have any specific known triggers.</p><p>Persons who get migraines and ice pick headaches may have more luck in determining their triggers.</p><p>These can be:</p><ol><li>Stress</li><li>Disruptions in sleep pattern or routine</li><li>Alcohol, particularly red wine</li><li>Hormonal changes</li><li>Food additives</li></ol><p>Ice pick headaches are identified by several symptoms.</p><p>These are:</p><ol><li>Sudden, stabbing head pain, which normally lasts for 5 to 10 seconds</li><li>Pain which may be classified as moderately severe to extremely painful</li><li>Stabs can happen once or many times in waves over several hours</li><li>Stabs can happen up to 50 times per day</li><li>Stabs happen without warning</li><li>Pain is normally felt on the top, front, or sides of the head</li><li>Stabs may happen in multiple areas of the head, one at a time</li></ol><p>Ice pick headaches are occasionally linked with cluster or migraine headaches but they differ from these types.</p><p>Their symptoms do not include any autonomic signs such as:</p><ol><li>Facial flushing</li><li>Eyelid drooping</li><li>Tearing</li></ol><p>To be able to diagnose this disorder, all the symptoms mentioned above must be present.</p><p>First, the doctor must exclude other secondary causes such as:</p><ol><li>Migraines</li><li>Cluster headaches</li><li>Temporal arteritis</li><li>Intra-cerebral meningioma</li><li>Autoimmune disorders</li><li>Bells palsy</li><li>Shingles</li></ol><p>This can be done through MRI brain or EEG.</p><p>The treatment for ice pick headaches is normally not required as they disappear in a matter of seconds, before the patient even reaches for the pain killer.<br />These preventive measures can be given to treat ice pick headaches:</p><ol><li>Indomethacin (NSAID)</li><li>Anti Depressants</li><li>Anti epileptic</li><li>Melatonin Hormone</li><li>Lifestyle changes</li></ol><p>TABLE OF CONTENT<br />Introduction<br />Chapter 1 Ice Pick Headaches<br
