Headaches are a type of pain, usually a throbbing pain, that affects a person’s head. Everyone in the world experiences headaches, with some people experiencing it more often than others.
People can experience headaches because of stress, being sick, eye strain, bright lights, loud noise exposure, lack of sleep or even being hungry.
Most of the time, headaches are nothing to be worried about, albeit they can cause a lot of discomfort. Dealing with headaches is also relatively straightforward, as most of the time, getting enough rest and over-the-counter-painkillers can help with headaches.
However, it’s also possible for headaches to become a serious problem. In particular, cluster headaches, which are considered as one of the most painful headaches, can affect a person’s day-to-day life.
The pain is usually described as intense pain in one eye or on the side of the head. Cluster headaches can happen on a daily basis, and can last for weeks or even months before they go away.
