Chronic daily headache

It is a relatively common complication of primary headaches, especially tension pain and migraines (in addition to migraine and tension pain, primary headaches are also cluster headaches and headaches during sexual and physical activity ). At various times (1-10 years), between the onset of the classic primary headache, lower-intensity headaches begin to appear, which appear more and more frequently until they later become permanent. The disease loses its original paroxysmal character and classic features.
