What a headache review! I'm studying for my Orofacial Pain boards and loved that you had a sample case and paused a bit so I could come up with my own answer before you told me.
I want to thank you sir and this channel for helping me get a 95 on my Neurology rotation. Whenever my classmates ask me where I learned what I knew during rotation, I always say “It’s Dr. Rybbinik, you should watch him on YT”. Your fresh take on teaching greatly helped. I’m graduating this July from Med school and hoping to take on Neurology/Psychiatry ỉn residency. Thank you so much!
So I don't usually leave comments on RUclips often, but wow....i had to for this one! Very very very helpful!!! Very clear and concise! All of your videos are so helpful! PLEASE make more videos! PLEASE!
Million and Billion of Thanks♥♥❤ and appreciations♥♥♥for covering this wonderful neurological topic,I really enjoyed the whole lectures learning about different kinds of headaches. 👍👍👍🥳🥳🥳
Hi Dr Rybinnik, my suggested topic includes: Aphasias, Optic nerve anatomy and clinical correlates, and basics of localization. I am bingewatching your videos... really love your lectures. I admire your passion for medical education. Very inspiring!
Please make videos on these topics doc :) 📌 Surgical Management of Strokes (Bleeds, Infarcts, Aneurysms, AVMs) 📌 Management of Increased Intracranial Pressure 📌 Neurorehabilitation 📌 Management of Seizures & epilepsy 📌 Hyperkinetic Movement Disorders 📌 Management of Parkinson’s Disease & other Extrapyramidal syndromes And this video was amazing 😇🫂
Excellent suggestions. Management of increased intracranial pressure is part of the "Coma" talk on this channel. I am slowly making the videos on all these other topics.
Hi Dr R- I live in the heart of another Big10 country- but if I lived in New Jersey I would be honored to have you for my instructor at Rutgers. Right now my neurologist seems to be flipping a coin between Migraine, IIH and Nornal Pressure Hydrocephalus- a few more tests Including an MRI, already had a Lumbar Puncture, CT, EEGs, tra tra la- maybe when I cross paths in July I will hear they have also consulted with a Witch Doctor. Anything fine with me; at 76- this perpetual headache gets me very worn out. Have A Happy and Successful Day, Doctor
what about one year of headaches , getting worse now in the last 2 months. Severe fatigue, sometimes i really want to sleep 1 hour after i woke up. I try without success to fall asleep, sadly. Low energy. Location: if i feel this correct its exactly in the centre of my head. Geometrical centre. Level of pain?... around 3...or 4 out of ten. History?... i went vegetarian in my 20s for ethical reasons. Had big health issues because i was naive, had no idea i have to add a few things, not just throw away so many :) and after 10 years started eating fish again. Rare, but i did. Now i am 46 and try fasting, low carb diet, experiment, but no success. My doc sent me to a set of analysis because i had very high B12 levels. When i told him the level is actually very low, he masked his lack of interest and said a bluffing and amazing: we are doing the same set anyway. Really. Anyway. Can't get help from him, he seems to be non human. Anyone ?:)Thanks. Another few facts: i did sports in my youth, started again last year (because of the fatigue), , 1.86 m height , 77 kg, little bellyfat, my vision is weakening slowly in the last months. And maybe an important element: i lost something 3 years ago. And all that kept me alive was gaming. I threw myself totally into an extremely stressing game, where i reached top levels. I do that around 12 -14hours/day wihtout pause, day after day (i don't need an income, survive from old savings. When they' ll be over...well... we'll see.) Last 2 monthis i kinda stopped. Some days i do not play at all, other days a few hours...but nothing changes. Sorry for the long story. Really. But i am lost :) I am in a country where docs don't give a flying fuck. Thanks again
I’m sorry that you are feeling badly. It is very challenging to diagnose people based on an internet post. I suggest you continue working with your doctor to find a solution.
Complex topics explained simply. So far the best tutorials on various neurological topics. This is how good medicine and teaching are made. Do you plan to post something about neurological infectious diseases as well? An of course: BIG THANKS :)
Thank you. I would love to put out many more of these videos, but my dayjob as a Stroke neurologist keeps me busy. I will try to post as soon as I can.
Hi Dr Rybinnik, really impressed with your helpful and well presented videos! Would it be possible for you to make the algorithms available? Many thanks for your great work!
Pathophysiology of dissection has more recently been shown to be rupture of vasa vasorum in intimal layers causing intramural hämatoma in most cases, not intimal tear and flap formation
I am really astonished by how beautifully designed this PowerPoint presentation and your skills of making easy to understand. I wonder which website or application that you are using for your slight
There is great debate among the headache specialists whether tension headache is a separate entity or really on a continuum with migraine. So to keep things simple, we didn't discuss it.
Lumbar punctures do not really work to reduce intracranial pressure in venous sinus thrombosis. As of now, aggressive anticoagulation is the primary treatment. If cerebral edema progresses despite anticoagulation, then surgical decompression may be necessary.
Although tension headache is a defined entity in the IHS, the existence of muscle tension has never been proven, and some headache neurologists (at least the ones that trained me) believe that it is on the continuum with migraine. So for the purposes of this talk, consider tension as part of migraine.
@@theneurophile Very interesting! I agree that the pathophysiology of tension type headache is still not well understood and it is true that migraine and tension type headache often do co-exist. However, the treatment (at least here in Denmark where I work) is rather different! In cases with primary tension type headache, we tend to recommend physiotherapy, avoiding medication overuse and prophylactic amitriptylin (70mg), mirtazapin (30mg) or venlafaxin (150mg).
@@Neurologi Thank you for that insight. I generally find headache difficult to treat given the vast number of disorders and paucity of data. I'm hoping these videos will give medical students an overview of the topic, so that they can be inspired to dig deeper.
Normal pressure hydrocephalus typically does not present with headache (this is a headache talk). Please refer to the “Hydrocephalus” talk on this channel for that discussion.
I really wish you would not have just briefly went past the possibility of CSF leaks because there are many people who have migraines as well as parts that also have CSF leaks many neurologist and doctors are just brushing that aside and not even considering that at all and your video you just did the same thing which is a disservice to many that have severe migraine problems and I am very dissatisfied with this video because you did not address that particular issue but yet you weren’t right word but all other neurologist and doctors have done is go right to tumors and didn’t even consider the Souter tumor which is a CSF leak which can be very debilitating to ask you to please review redo and put out a new video that encompasses this problem because I have severe migraines and I mean severe debilitating migraines but also seem to have a positional issue with fluid increase in the frontal lobe of my brain I see it being an impossibility that positions and neurologist are not asking in that direction one lady that I know and I follow on RUclips went for years without getting the right diagnosis and finally went to a clinic in Texas by video conferencing and found out her suspicion was correct that she had a suitor tumor her medication regimen and things have changed to take that into account with her migraines and her pots thank you for reading this comment especially are you students that are study in this area please take into account that some people may actually have increased or decreased cerebral fluid to the brain because of recent CAT scan that I had done when I went into the emergency room for a migraine showed that I do have a reduced fluid level and one section of my brain has reduced blood flow included as well I also have a history of Trumatic brain injury which could also cause weakening of the Durham around the brain and the brain stem leaking fluid thank you goodbye
I’m sorry to hear that you are suffering. You are absolutely right that low pressure from CSF leaks is a very real problem. Unfortunately it is impossible to cover every disorder in one video (there are over 84 types of headaches). I will try to make a video about low pressure headaches when I have some time.
Best medical lecture series on a field of medicine on YT by far.
Wow! Thank you for that.
the life style changes part got me dead🤣🤣|
your the coolest neurologist ever and my roll model no doubt!
Oh wow. Thanks!

The best lecture ever! PURE GOLD. Thanks from Brazil.
What an amazing lecture!!
This one's GOLD. Thank you so much Dr. Rybinnik.
I am really appreciative for videos. As a neurologist I learned a lot and I recommended it to my friends. Thanks
one of the few productive things on you tube.thanks sir
Thank you so much for your work Dr. Rybinnik. Looking forward to your next video!
It will be uploaded shortly. Almost done.
Incredible, thank you so much. I am a MS1 and this was so helpful

just excellent lecture as always, I am addicted to your videos,,,,, Thanks
What a lecture, thank you for sharing this amazing content.
We are currently working on the prequel: Thunderclap headache. Stay tuned.
Thank you dr rybinnik
Greatest lectures 🌷❤
Hi Dr Rybinnik, my suggested topic includes: Aphasias, Optic nerve anatomy and clinical correlates, and basics of localization. I am bingewatching your videos... really love your lectures. I admire your passion for medical education. Very inspiring!
Thank you. A massive localization talk is in the works.
@@theneurophile when will it be available, I have exams next month 🥺
@@Lesgrandslivres I wish I could work that fast. Unfortunately for now I am a team of one, and I have clinical responsibilities :(
@@theneurophile understandable... Thank you for your work though, really the best neuro lectures :)
Sir , it is a great gift for me to have stumbled upon your channel . best greetings for you sir !♥️♥️♥️
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension:)) thank you so much for great videos👍
Correct!
The treatment?
@@ilqar887 epidural blood patch
Yes! I was right too :)
Please make videos on these topics doc :)
📌 Surgical Management of Strokes (Bleeds, Infarcts, Aneurysms, AVMs)
📌 Management of Increased Intracranial Pressure

43:00 'Do you have the attention span for one more thing?' The way you teach, I have the attention span for a thousand more things!
You HAVE to make this stuff for other specialties (cardiology). Its pure gold
I would love to, but I am a Neurologist. So, unfortunately I am not qualified to comment on other specialties.
Please keep going with the lectures, you're awesome!

Thank you so much for this lecture!
Is it possible to talk about cervical vertebral trauma?
And thank you so much!!!
I'll second the need for cervical vertebra trauma that includes arachnoid cyst at the top of the spine.
amazing 👏....thank you .....can you please make a video about neurolocalization ( resident level ) thanks
Yep. It’s in the works.
Thank you!
Amazing ❤
Great
Best!

Thank you. Please include a reference for that statement.
Very informativ :)
The woman in the case is literally me (even the blurry vision details), that's surprising.
Migraines are unfortunately common. I hope yours are not too terrible.
@@theneurophile They are very mild, I never thought it was a case of migraine because I always believed migraines can only be really painful.
@@AnniePharm Good to hear. Migraines can certainly occur without pain.
Answer
Headache attributed to low cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure
I am really astonished by how beautifully designed this PowerPoint presentation and your skills of making easy to understand. I wonder which website or application that you are using for your slight
Thank you. I am just using Powerpoint
Great video!, I wonder though about tension type headache? Why is it excluded from this video?
There is great debate among the headache specialists whether tension headache is a separate entity or really on a continuum with migraine. So to keep things simple, we didn't discuss it.
@@theneurophile I see. Thankyou 😊
Please Dr., some talk about fMRI and differents types of paradigms and it's implementation in mental disorders. Greets and thanks.
There is an MRI video on this channel.
In a case of cerebral venous thrombosis, should we just anticoagulate the patient or interrupt anticoagulation to perform relief punctures?
Lumbar punctures do not really work to reduce intracranial pressure in venous sinus thrombosis. As of now, aggressive anticoagulation is the primary treatment. If cerebral edema progresses despite anticoagulation, then surgical decompression may be necessary.
@@theneurophile Thanks!
I know another cause of headaches .. Botox prior auths! Haha 😅 We do see great response from patients though.
Thank you very much.
Keep it up
Could you make a talk about antitrombotic therapy and Its indications/contraindications in vascular neurology?
Sure, will try.
😅😅😅
So good lecture Dr. Rybinnik. How could I email you?
Last was csf leak.. Right?
Yep

in that case can i tell this cvst problem
How do you treat cervical headache?
That’s a tough question to answer since it depends highly on the cause. Most cases are treated conservatively.
Cephalea related IgG4
Are you referring to the thumbnail? That’s actually just intracranial hypotension.
What about normal pressure Hydrocephalus? You touch on IIH but not this? J- u- s-t wondering
Normal pressure hydrocephalus typically does not present with headache (this is a headache talk). Please refer to the “Hydrocephalus” talk on this channel for that discussion.
What about new persistent daily headaches?
You may have to read about that one. It didn't fit into the talk.
@@theneurophile Thanks for replying, perhaps you got any specific reading material to recommend?
high dose corticosteriods could you tell us how many mg/kg ??
For prednisone, it would typically be 1mg/kg daily to start.
@@theneurophile thanks
@@theneurophile is not Prednisone bad for you?
Good thing I went to medical school so I can understand this-NOT AT ALL😢
Oh no! I hope you understood at least something.
