Abstract

Many people experience a headache after birth. A spinal headache is a special type of headache that people can have after an epidural or spinal anesthetic. It is caused by a hole in the spinal fluid sac, where the epidural went in.

This handout describes symptoms of spinal headaches. It also explains how an epidural blood patch procedure can help. A blood patch uses your own blood to patch a hole in your spinal fluid sac.
