Abstract

Migraine is a frequent neurological disorder in childhood and adolescence. Its complexity and relevance for everyday life, development and health behavior is regularly underestimated. The prevalence of migraine in childhood and adolescence has been increasing in recent years. The mixed type with overlapping of migraine and tension-type headache is typical for childhood. An early and correct diagnosis is important in order to initiate a rapid and adequate treatment, to support the best possible course of childhood development and to prevent the danger for somatic stress disorder and chronification. The bio-psycho-social understanding of the disease, the association of muscle pain in the neck and shoulder area and migraine (via the so-called trigemino-cervical complex) as well as the structured, interdisciplinary, multiprofessional and multimodal treatment are of special importance. The "moma(modules on migraine activity)-intervention", an innovation fund project of the Federal Joint Committee (G-BA), provides an example for this approach.
