Headache refers to persistent or long-lasting pain or aches in the head region of the body. Headache is a common result of traumatic brain injuries and can persist for a long period, even after mild head trauma. Increased attention to traumatic brain injuries has raised concern on post-traumatic headache, one of the most common consequences of traumatic brain injuries. The International Headache Society defines post-traumatic headache like the one which develops within seven days after traumatic brain injury. Post-traumatic headache is often associated with symptoms such as insomnia, poor concentration, dizziness, sensitivity to noise and bright lights, fatigue, and many others. Violence, motor vehicle accidents, sports injuries, and falls are common incidents that result in traumatic brain injuries. According to the American Migraine Foundation, almost 1.7 million traumatic brain injuries occur every year in the United States, having a significant impact on the lives of the patients.
The growth in global post-traumatic headache market is being driven by the increase in the incidences of traumatic brain injuries and advancements in the treatment of post-traumatic headache. The major mergers and acquisitions are also expected to drive the global post-traumatic headache market. For example, in 2017, AstraZeneca partnered with Grunenthal for the global rights of Zomig outside Japan, which will enable Grunenthal to have a major portion of the global post-traumatic headache market by 2025.
