- Try building your search one term at a time, and be as specific as you can! Search term example: "chronic cough".
- Do not enter multiple findings such as "anemia, chronic cough, weight loss, vomiting" all at the same time.
- After selecting your term from the search results a list of possible diagnoses will be generated. If the list is too long, you will be able to narrow it down by entering additional terms.
- Do not enter values such as "heart rhythm 110" or "sodium 125", instead use "tachycardia" or "hyponatremia".

- Definition
-
Symptoms; subacute headaches in children ; headaches worse, same spot, and better or worse changing position of head, standing, sitting, lying down; occipital headaches; those that waken patient from a deep sleep, occur at night or in the morning are worse; those associated with vomiting without nausea, or projectile vomiting; headaches worse staining at stool, with valsalva, or with lifting and with cough or sneeze; any headache associated with focal seizures; headaches that occur day after day in same area and worsening signal intracranial lesion but this is not always found at all on imaging; however all these scenarios should be worked up of with scans and LP
