Chronic nonprogressive headaches are common in adolescents. The features of this syndrome are distinct from those of migraine. Chronic nonprogressive headaches have received less attention and study than migraine headaches. The prevalence of this syndrome is not clear. A structured psychological interview with the patient and the parents of the patient coupled with psychological testing of the patient will usually identify factors playing a role in the continuing headache. Counseling, biofeedback, and cognitive training, combined with judicious use of medication, will frequently lead to resolution of the headache.
