ABSTRACT
Episodic tension type headache is considered to be the most prevalent primary headache. If tension type headache occurs on more than 15 days per month for at least 3 consecutive months, it is classified as chronic tension type headache. In recent years, it has become obvious that it is difficult to distinguish between episodic tension type headache and a moderate migraine attack and also between chronic tension type headache and chronic migraine. In the paper, we discuss how the differential diagnosis can be more specific and which therapy is supported by the literature. In addition, we discuss differences and similarities of tension type headache and migraine and a possible similar pathophysiology of both (convergence hypothesis).
