Abstrakt		Headache presents an increasing health problem among children and adolescents in the region of Maribor. This article shows results of an epidemiological survey carried out on 540 school children, aged 13 to 17. 94,1% of children have experienced headache. 75,2% of children suffered from headache and 45,7% of children suffered from recurring headaches a year before the survey. Prevalence of recurrent headache was higher in girls (67,6%) than in boys (32,4%). Headache appeared more often in seventeen-year-old adolescents (54,3%) than in thirteen-year-olds (32,7%). Less successful school children more often mentioned recurrent headaches than those who were more successful. 61,9% of children with recurrent headache had parents who suffered from headache. 34,6% of children with recurrent headache had parents who did not suffer from headache. Most school children mentioned middle severe headaches, which appeared in the afternoon (44,5%) and in the evening (15,6%) lasting for some hours (62,2%). 66,8% of children took an analgesic pill. The research also showed that 40,4% of adolescents sometimes suffered from abdominal pain, 23,3% from chest pain, 11,5% suffered from choking feelings while breathing and 21,3% had pains in their back.
