Summary
The aim of the study is to examine symptomatology, quantitative sensory test (QST) parameters, muscle tenderness and muscle hardness in migraine patients interictally and compare with healthy controls
Detailed description
Migraine patients exhibit different symptomatology and responses to treatment. For example do many migraine patients have neck symptoms, despite they apparently do not have any neck disorders.Furthermore the response to treatment differs between patients. Differences in symptomatology, QST parameters and muscle stiffness can be used to subdivide and phenotype migraine patients. The investigators are examining migraine patients with: A semistructured interview, Quantitative sensory testing (cold pain threshold, heat pain threshold and Pin Prick), Muscle tenderness (total tenderness score, local tenderness score and stimulus response curve), and muscle hardness with ultrasound elastography. All tests are performed the same day
