Suggest Remedy For Headache And Shooting Pain In Head
I am having vague pressure headaches and electrical shooting pains in my head. The shooting pains are mostly occurring in the vicinity where I had two or three prior head injuries. One pretty severe as a child, one a fall in the shower and I hit my head on a tree limb about a year ago. I feel very tired around and behind my eyes. I have suffered migraines over my life but these are different with the electrical sharp pains. Thanks

Hello,
These short lasting throbbing headaches may accompany a migraine and are known as an ice pick or primary throbbing headaches.
There's no cure for them since they last short and come out of nowhere, besides treatment for a migraine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Erion Spaho, Neurologist, Surgical
