Abstract

Chronic daily headache relates to the daily or almost daily occurrence of headache in a nonparoxysmal pattern. In this review, I discuss the presentation, development, outcome, and treatment of chronic daily headache. In the context of the development of chronic daily headache, a headache continuum is presented along with its underlying pathophysiology. The treatment section covers rebound headache, analgesic and vasoconstrictor withdrawal, and the use of long-acting opioids in intractable patients. The review concludes with a discussion of hemicrania continua, an indomethacin-responsive headache syndrome.
