Hello,

I think it is a just cluster headache happening due to tension. If you have nausea, aura, dizziness or blurring of vision during the episode of a headache then kindly visit neurologist because these can be symptoms of a migraine or raised intracranial pressure.

So, you need to be examined if it yes, or else take any pain killers for a headache. You can also use aspirin tablets.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
