Pleasure and Displeasure: Thunderclap Headache in a 13-Year-Old Boy.
Child Neurology Open 2021
Primary headache associated with sexual activity (PHASA) is a rare headache syndrome characterized by an acute, maximally intense headache during sexual activity and/or orgasm. While rare, it is a diagnosis that is widely accepted in adults; but, scarcely documented in children and adolescents. We aim to highlight the diagnostic process of this interesting headache syndrome in the pediatric population and add to the small list of reported cases in this group. Herein, we describe the case of a 13-year-old boy who presented with thunderclap headaches (TCH) associated with sexual activity. While more commonly diagnosed in adults, PHASA should be considered in sexually active children, though more ominous diagnoses should also be contemplated prior to establishing this diagnosis.
