[Identification of chronic daily headache risk factors to prevent migraine progression].
Migraine is a recurrent disorder that progresses in some individuals. Chronic daily headache is the result of such a progression. Identifying risk factors for progression is an important element of migraine evaluation. If risk factors can be identified, that might provide a foundation for more aggressive preventive intervention. In this perspective identification of remediable risk factors is essential. Remediable risk factors are: frequency of migraine attacks, acute medication overuse (with non specific and specific drugs), caffeine overuse, overweight and obesity, snoring and psychiatric comorbidity.
