Cause For Stabbing Pain In The Head?

I have intermittent stabbing pain bilaterally in lamboid suture area of my head. It usually last about 5-10 minutes, and at times seems completely unbearable. It is usually worse on the right side, but is always bilateral pain. What could be going on? Does this sound like something I should be worried about? I m a 34 yr old female.

Hi, It looks like tension headache. Is it more towards end of the day? Is it aggravated by exposure to sunlight, loud noise or during stress. Advise to practice meditation for 15 minutes every day. Eat balanced diet. Ensure your diet has adequate fruit servings -minimum 3 servings. Deep breathing exercises will be of great help. Also get your eyesight checked. If it is not associated with any other symptoms, you need not worry. If it is persistent after lifestyle modification, consult neurologist.
