Cluster Headaches:

Cluster headache is one of the most common headaches. According to Stephen D. Silberstein, MD most cluster headache sufferers are male at approximately about 85%. This kind of headache comes in groups or clusters lasting for weeks or even months. The pain is extremely severe; it centers around one eye or tears up the nasal congestion and nasal drip.



This is the type of headache that wakes you up in the middle of the night in its full-blown state. However, the good news is that this kind of attack is brief.
