Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We present a case of a 25-year-old male with severe headaches associated with exertion and sexual intercourse with vasoconstriction on magnetic resonance and CT angiograms done during his typical headaches. The headache syndrome and angiographic findings resolved after starting low-dose verapamil. Perhaps, some cases of primary exertional and primary headaches associated with sexual activity are associated with reversible cerebral vasoconstriction responsive to calcium channel blockers. |
