Some, but not all, reports suggest that the onset of NDPH can be triggered by certain events. Other studies suggest that viruses or upper respiratory infections rhinitis, pharyngitis may occur before the headache starts.
However, understanding the potential role of viral or other infection in NDPH requires further research. People with NDPH will frequently have sleep disturbance, pain at other sites, dizziness, worsening anxiety and mood, and school absence. Other frequent symptoms include non-specific abdominal pain, back pain, neck pain, and diffuse muscle and joint pain. It can resemble chronic migraine in its features, with days when there is light or sound sensitivity, nausea, throbbing, or pain on just one side of the head.
Sometimes, it may resemble a tension-type milder headache without any of those features. NDPH is treated like the headache it resembles, generally chronic migraine or chronic tension-type headache.
There is no specific treatment for NDPH - it is difficult to control, and often these types of headaches are treated like migraines. Some common medications have been shown to be effective in studies of adult and children, including amitriptyline, gabapentin, pregabalin, propranolol and topiramate.
There are no controlled trials of preventative treatment and in those who display migraine-like features, it may be worth using migraine prophylactic treatment to reduce the risk of attacks occurring. We tend to avoid using opioid drugs like morphine due to their side effects and the possibility of causing medication overuse headaches.

Introduction New daily persistent headache NDPH is a rare primary headache disorder, characterized by persistent headache with a particular temporal profile as it starts 1 day with a clearly remembered onset and continues in a daily pattern without remitting.
Epidemiology NDPH is thought to be a rare disorder, but until recently there have been limited studies of its epidemiology Table 1. References 1. Headache Google Scholar 2.

Due to the possibility of a medication-overuse headache developing, people should try to avoid relying on short-term medications to manage NDPH, such as over-the-counter OTC pain relievers. Medications, such as barbiturates and opioids are addictive, so doctors should avoid prescribing them. Complementary therapies, such as biofeedback and relaxation techniques, may help people reduce or cope with their daily symptoms.
Migraine is a neurological condition that can cause moderate-to-severe headaches. A person with chronic migraine experiences headaches for more than 15 days out of every month and has a full migraine episode or uses pain medication for at least 8 of those days.
Some people also experience temporary sensory disturbances before the pain begins. These are known as aura. Treatment can involve people taking prescription medications to stop symptoms progressing, which reduces the frequency of headaches.
Some people also find it helpful to try supplements, such as magnesium , acupuncture , or biofeedback. Learn more about chronic migraine. A chronic tension-type headache occurs when a person has tension-type headaches for at least 15 days each month.
Tension headaches cause different symptoms to migraine. These include:. Usually , tension-type headache pain is mild to moderate and does not get worse if a person is physically active. People with occasional tension headaches can use OTC pain medications, but if someone experiences these headaches more frequently, using OTC pain medications more often may cause adverse effects. Preventative approaches, such as amitriptyline, massage, physical therapy , or biofeedback may help people to manage the condition.
