This case report details a head nurse in the emergency room (ER) with a severe throbbing headache, trismus, left-sided dysphagia, left otalgia, gum pain, and a very intense left-sided headache, associated with ipsilateral facial hypoesthesia. The patient met the International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD-3) criteria for headaches attributed to inflammation of the stylohyoid ligament, establishing the diagnosis of Eagle syndrome. Chronic headaches associated with ES, as observed in this case, can impact concentration, comprehension, communication, and work performance, leading to economic loss. This prompts the question: Are individuals with ES capable of working under intense physical and psychological conditions? The paper proposes a management strategy for ES patients, emphasizing the need for further research on the impact of ES on occupational fitness, as no published studies currently address this concern. https://crcp.tums.ac.ir/index.php/crcp/article/view/919 https://crcp.tums.ac.ir/index.php/crcp/article/download/919/627
