ABSTRACT
 
Tension headache is a common clinical diagnosis in children suffering from chronic headache, but little is known about this condition. We conducted clinical observation of 6100 patients (ages 5-18, citizens of Israel) suffering from “Tension Headache” and found meningeal symptoms and the whole complex of Meningism in 97% of them. This led us to the conclusion that chronic headache in children is a result of damage caused to brain membranes (Dura Mater). Next step was to look for the root cause of the brain membranes’ damage and we found it to be Streptococcal infection (80% of cases), Epstein–Barr virus (10% of cases), Helicobacter Pylori (HP) (2% of cases) and head trauma (8% of cases).
