There are many different types of headaches, over 150 altogether. Examples include:
- Cluster headaches
- Ice pick headaches
- Chronic daily headaches
- Hormone headaches
- Rebound headaches
- Spinal headaches
- Thunderclap headaches
- Cervicogenic headaches
- Migraine headaches
One of the most well-known types of headache is a migraine. Migraines cause pain of such intensity that you may be unable to move or think clearly for hours and sometimes days. A migraine attack can make you feel nauseous and vomit, get severely fatigued, have blurred vision, and develop a sensitivity to light or other stimuli.
Visual disturbances like seeing shapes or spots before your eyes, which is known as an aura, are also a problem for some people before and/or during a migraine. Many people get recurring migraines, some as often as eight a month or more, while others can go years between attacks.
