Cluster Headache (CH) is an excruciating primary headache disorder that is 3 times more prevalent in men than women. CH involves one sided pain, although it can switch sides. the pain is often described by sufferers as feeling like a hot poker being stuck in their eye.

Attacks come in clusters that can last weeks or months. After each cluster, the attacks can disappear for months or even years.
