What are cluster headaches?
Cluster headache is one of the most severe pain disorders
Often referred to as the "suicide headache", it manifests in extreme one-sided attacks around the eye or temple that occur in clusters. The intensity is hard to imagine and affects every aspect of life. Sufferers face not only the pain itself but also the unpredictability and psychological strain. Relatives usually feel helpless watching their loved ones suffer.
