Cluster Headache: A neurological disorder with severe headaches typically near the eye, Cluster Headache is often said to be the most painful disease. The ache is mostly at one side of the head with nasal congestion, eye watering, and eye inflammation as the accompanying symptoms. Under this condition a group of headache attacks occur together giving it the name ‘Cluster’ headache. The cause and cure of the disease is unknown till now though it can be prevented sometimes and the acute attacks treated. The most recurrent cause however was observed to be tobacco smoking. Often confused with Migraine, Cluster Headache is also commonly known as Suicide Headache; the pain associated with it so severe that people suffering with are often driven to taking their own life.
Kidney Stones: It is the aggregation of the dietary minerals from the urine in the forming stones on the kidneys. The cause of Kidney stones is generally dehydration, high Sodium or Calcium content in the blood.
Shingles: Caused by the varicella-zoster virus that is the cause of Chicken Pox, Shingles is basically the infection of a nerve and the skin around it. It is characterized by a crop of blisters on one side of the body, especially around the waistline. The pain associated with it is tingling or burning which is inflamed even with the slightest touch around the region or just a breeze wafting over it. Complications like postherepetic neuralgia where the pain lasts months after the rashes are gone can arise from Shingles.

These tumors, also known as lipomas are extremely painful. Dercum’s disease is often mistaken with obesity due to the fatty lumping seen on the body but it is much more than that. The cause of this disease is unknown but it is proposed to be dysfunctional nervous system, mechanical pressure on nerves, adipose tissue dysfunction and trauma.
