Premonitory symptoms preceding cluster headache attacks are rarely documented. Recognizing these early warning signs allows for prompt prophylactic treatment and deeper understanding of this primary headache disorder.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Headache Medicine

Background:

  • Cluster headache is a severe primary headache disorder.
  • The prodromal phase of cluster headache is not well-characterized in medical literature.

Observation:

  • This report details four patients experiencing premonitory symptoms days before cluster headache attacks.
  • These symptoms serve as potential early indicators of an impending attack.

Findings:

  • Premonitory symptoms are a notable, though infrequently reported, phenomenon in cluster headache.
  • The identification of these symptoms can precede the severe pain of cluster headache by several days.

Implications:

  • Recognizing premonitory symptoms enables timely initiation of prophylactic therapy.
