摘要
Most headaches subsequent to spinal or epidural anesthesia are related to dural puncture, appear one to three days after the procedure and persist for one to five days. Several headaches of a different character among Pain Clinic, patients following epidural steroid injections, were seen. These headaches occur shortly after the procedure, usually upon the patient's sitting up, are partially relieved by lying down, and subside spontaneously within a few minutes to several hours. Eight such headaches over a two and a half year period among a total of 604 epidural anesthesias are documented. Case reports illustrate the problem.
