Ángel L. Guerrero, Sonia Herrero‐Velázquez, María L. Peñas, Patricia Mulero, M.I. Pedraza · Cephalalgia · 2012

Summary

An anaesthetic blocks or corticosteroid injections may be effective in HC patients showing tenderness of the SON, GON or trochlear area, as well as in patients with a complete response to indomethacin.
