abstract = "Frequent headache and juvenile fibromyalgia (JFM) are common conditions observed in childhood and adolescents. They can present in isolation or as comorbid conditions. There is no scientific literature investigating this association in adolescents or childhood. There is evidence in adults that headache, particularly migraine, can be a potential risk factor for developing fibromyalgia (FMS) and that migraine can be also a comorbid and perpetuating factor of FMS. Comorbidity between these two conditions can lead to increased levels of sensitization of the central nervous system and limit therapeutic approaches. Additionally, the presence of comorbid FMS and migraine is associated with worse clinical presentation and higher psychological disturbances. Early identification of risk factors for development of this comorbid association seems to be a challenge for pediatric clinicians.",
