A cluster headache is a severe, recurring type of headache characterized by intense, stabbing pain typically around one eye or on one side of the head, often accompanied by symptoms like tearing or nasal congestion. These episodes come in clusters, lasting weeks or months, followed by pain-free periods, and are considered one of the most painful conditions known, sometimes driving people to seek immediate medical help due to their sudden onset and debilitating nature.
