cephalalgia

If you will only call a headache a Cephalalgia, it acquires dignity at once, and a patient becomes rather proud of it.

Particularly, that form of cephalalgia called sick headache is apt to appear, in the periodical form, through several generations.

An Italian physician, Fantoni, has tried it in cephalalgia, meningitis rheumatica and in ischias.

The local symptoms are sometimes preceded by rigor, followed by fever, cephalalgia, and pains in the neck and occiput.

In other cases there is intense cephalalgia, nervous irritability, restlessness, and even delirium.
