Headache is one of the most common clinical complaints and its frequency is highly variable. Sometimes the headache is daily, sometimes it occurs only once in a few years and goes unnoticed. According to the International Classification of Headache Disorders, 3rd edition, headache can be a manifestation of a disease (The Secondary Headache) or a distinct disease entity (The Primary Headache), as well as Painful Cranial Neuropathies, Other Facial Pain and Other Headaches. Migraine, a common type of The Primary Headache, is the leading cause of disability worldwide and seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Relevant studies have shown that the prevalence of headache is high in people aged 18-65 years old, which constitutes the main working age group and brings a heavy burden to families and society. As a result, headache has become a major public health problem requiring urgent attention but has not received the attention it deserves. Vestibular migraine, which presents with both migraine and vertigo/dizziness symptoms, has not been fully recognized and is often misdiagnosed due to its complex and variable symptoms, lack of specific biomarkers, and frequent comorbidity with other vestibular system diseases. Reevaluating headache disorders and vestibular migraine, along with enhancing awareness within the medical community and administrative departments, will contribute to improved quality of life for patients and the alleviation of familial and societal burdens.
