Headaches are a very common complaint for general practitioners and neurologists. When a regional cause has been excluded, the neurologist will class headaches according to the criteria of the International Headache Society. An estimate of the 1-year prevalence of migraine in adults is about 10-15%. ⋯ Surgical treatment may be proposed secondarily. In conclusion, the right diagnosis leads to the right treatment. Thus, daily chronic headaches due to drug overuse can be avoided.
