Notably, 25\/31 (81%) had a previous history of headache. The specific features of the headache varied considerably, but 23\/31 (74%) met International Classification of Headache Disorders, Third Edition (ICHD\u20103) criteria for migraine, with 20\/31 (65%) meeting ICHD\u20103 criteria for chronic migraine, while only 5\/31 (16%) met these criteria before COVID infection. Additionally, full\u2010time employment decreased from 25\/31 (81%) to 17\/31 (55%). Prior to establishing care at our clinic, 13\/18 (72%) of the patients who were started on preventive medications currently indicated for migraine management, reported a decrease in frequency and\/or severity of headaches.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n Our study presents a group of patients with protracted headache after COVID\u201019 infection that includes both patients with a previously lower headache burden who largely exhibited chronification from episodic to chronic migraine, as well as patients with no previous history of headache who meet ICHD\u20103 criteria for headache attributed to a systemic viral illness, mostly with a migrainous phenotype.<\/jats:p>\n
