What are the different types of headaches?

Patient's question:

What are the different types of headaches? Is a migraine a type of headache? What is the best way to treat it?

Doctor's answer:

The classification of headaches is very diverse in clinical diagnosis, and it is not fixed or unchanging, requiring understanding. From a clinical diagnostic perspective, there are several aspects of headaches that need to be noted. The first is migraine, the second is cluster headache, the third is tension-type headache, the fourth aspect is hysteria, which is self-imposed, and the fifth aspect is considering intracranial space-occupying lesions. Migraine is one of the most difficult to relieve, generally requiring medication to control and alleviate it.
