Chronic headache are of different types like:

Cluster headaches - because of chronic stress.

Migraine headache - aggravated by heat, sunlight, wind, hot beverages etcetera. Appears mostly in half side of head and of throbbing type.

Tension headache - involves occipital area only.

For all types of headaches, Initial drug of choice is paracetamol 500 mg 8 hourly.

For further differentiation of headache types, please consult physician.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
