The first step in treating a headache is to determine what kind you have. Migraine: This type lasts from four hours to three days, with pulsing pain on one side of the head, nausea and sensitivity to light and sound Tension: Diffuse, viselike pressure throughout the head. Attacks last from 30 minutes to a week Cluster: Also known as suicide headaches, these are the most painful kind. They occur in groups—as often as eight times a day—and are experienced as a searing pressure in one eye Other: Any number of medical conditions, from viral infection to brain tumor, can cause a headache. Treating the disease usually relieves the pain |
