steroid injections
Treatment for Cluster Headache
Steroid injections for Cluster Headache typically involve corticosteroids like prednisone or dexamethasone, which act by suppressing inflammatory processes and modulating immune system responses. These medications bind to glucocorticoid receptors, reducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and inhibiting neural inflammation, thereby potentially interrupting the pathophysiological cascade associated with Cluster Headache episodes and providing rapid symptomatic relief.
