This pioneering study in Africa examines the prevalence, characteristics, and impact of primary headaches-and migraines in particular-among healthcare workers at a teaching hospital in Dakar, Senegal. The findings are the result of a rigorous methodology and the enthusiastic participation of the hospital staff. It may serve as a reference for other similar studies and, above all, draw the attention of health authorities to the scale of the problem and its impact on the quality of life and professional performance of the affected healthcare workers. We also provide, at the end of this book, several recommendations that may help reduce the burden of primary headaches in this professional group. This book is intended for practicing physicians, general practitioners, or specialists involved in the daily care of patients with headaches. It will also be of interest to graduate and postgraduate medical students, paramedical staff, and policymakers in the health sector.
