Do children and adolescents have chronic daily headaches? Yes!
Chronic daily headaches in children and adolescents appear to have been increasing throughout the past few decades. The diagnosis, classification, treatment, and long-term prognosis continue to be poorly understood. Recent epidemiologic studies and updated classifications have been done in this area, but further work is needed to help these children.
