What Could Headache Behind Eyes Suggest?
My son is 17, normally healthy (aside from sinus issues) and a football player. At practice, while doing jumping jacks, he said he heard a "pop" near his temple and then got a headache. He continued practice and by the time he got home he said he still had a headache behind his right eye, but he seemed fine. What could this be?

Dear
I am sorry first the symptoms you are suffering
The way your son described pain seems like migraine attacks
It really hard to make the right diagnose without exam the patient but as you said he looks normal I don't think you have reason to worry too much
In my opinion if pain persist you have to schedule a neurological examination, if it is normal, nothing to worry about
Hope my answer will help you
Best regards
