You’ll be supported by experienced clinicians who care for a wide range of health needs, from everyday concerns to more complex conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

When does frequent headache become chronic?

Chronic daily headache is defined as headaches occurring 15 or more days per month for at least 3 months. Chronic migraine — the most common subtype — involves 8 or more migraine-quality days monthly. Reaching this threshold warrants a clinical evaluation and discussion of preventive treatment.

Could my frequent headaches be caused by the medication I take for them?

Yes — medication overuse headache (MOH) is one of the most common and underrecognized causes of chronic daily headache. Using acute treatments — triptans, NSAIDs, or even OTC pain relievers — more than 10–15 days per month can perpetuate and worsen headache frequency.

What preventive treatments are available for chronic headache?

Options include daily oral medications — topiramate, amitriptyline, beta-blockers, valproate — as well as monthly injectable CGRP monoclonal antibodies, which are specifically indicated for chronic migraine and have strong evidence for reducing headache days.

Should I have imaging done for my chronic headaches?

Imaging is not routinely indicated for chronic headaches with a consistent pattern and no neurological symptoms. Red flags — new or sudden onset, progressive worsening, neurological deficits, or headaches waking from sleep — warrant imaging to exclude secondary causes.

What side effects are associated with chronic headache treatments?

Topiramate may cause cognitive slowing and word-finding difficulty. Amitriptyline causes drowsiness and dry mouth. Beta-blockers may cause fatigue. CGRP monoclonal antibodies — erenumab, fremanezumab, galcanezumab — are very well tolerated with minimal systemic side effects. Chronic Headache visit What to expect from a Chronic Headache visit
