Abstract:
Anxiety-depressive disorders are closely associated and frequently comorbid with headache (especially primary headache), which significantly increases the disease burden of patients and the difficulties of treatment. Anxiety-depressive disorders can not only increase the risk of primary headache but also directly cause headache attributed to anxiety-depressive disorders. There are complex mechanisms underlying the comorbidity of anxiety-depressive disorders and headache, and currently, there is still a lack of diagnostic criteria for "headaches attributed to anxiety-depressive disorders", which requires future research to delve deeper into the comorbidity mechanisms and optimize diagnostic criteria. This article reviews the interrelationship between anxiety-depressive disorders and headache, as well as related advances in diagnosis, underlying mechanisms, and treatment, so as to provide help for clinical diagnosis and management.
