Many people have daily headaches which can range from severe
to mild. Daily headaches may cause people to take excessive
amounts of pain medication which can be harmful. Many people
find their lives have been seriously affected by pain. Jobs
are lost because of absenteeism, commonly from headaches.
The American Headache Society and the American Academy of
Neurology have taken an active role in researching the causes
and treatments of daily headaches.
Most people with chronic daily headaches can be helped through
methodical evaluation, testing and evidence-based treatment
plans. People with chronic daily headaches should be evaluated
by a neurologist to rule out dangerous causes for these headaches.
The most common complaint expressed by new patients at the
Michigan Headache Clinic is daily headache.
