Cluster headaches are loosely defined as intense headaches that seem to be triggered by either stress, alcohol use, or an external factor such as a specific food item. Like migraines, cluster headaches can be chronic and recurrent. Unlike migraines, however, cluster headaches tend to affect men more so than women. Why do cluster headaches start? Unfortunately, no specific cause has been found to explain why an individual might experience a cluster headache. Additionally, there are no cures, and most treatments available for cluster headaches only alleviate the pain and symptoms associated with this condition. Consequently, a cluster headache patient may fall prey to recurrent episodes, or interminably long periods of intense pain. Individuals who suffer from cluster headaches and apply for disability may find that their disorder is only given as much consideration as other impairments for which the etiology is unclear (such as fibromyalgia and chronic pain syndrome). Which is to say, not much. However, this does not mean that a claimant with one of these disorders cannot win benefits. Any condition can be considering disabling, provided that an individual's resulting restrictions are great enough.
