Chronic headaches: Chronic headaches could be due to an underlying medical condition like fibromyalgia. Use of medications like Ibuprofen and triptans on a frequent basis can cause headaches. Family history of headaches also predisposes a person to headaches. Other factors involved in headaches include stress, physical trauma, sleep disorders, and frequent caffeine. Consult a pain physician.
