headache

Pain felt within the skull. Most headaches are caused by stress or tension, but some may be symptoms of brain or systemic disease, including fever.

Chronic daily headache may be caused by painkiller misuse, according to the European Headache Foundation in 1996. People who take daily analgesics to treat chronic headaches may actually be causing the headaches by doing so. See also migraine.
