Suggest Treatment For Severe Eye Pain
For the last month or so I ve been experiencing a shot of pain that starts above my right eye and travels to the top of my foreheads just past my hairline. It only lasts about 2-3 seconds and multiple times a day. It s in the exact same spot every time and it s starting to really annoy me. Any ideas? No other symptoms that I know of.

hi
thanks for posting in HCM
I have understand the concern
with the symptoms you have told and in the same site every time , I am suspecting you are having neurological pain mostly trigeminal neuralgia.
it increases with hot water and movement of the surrounding parts.
I can suggest you to start on tab.amitriptyline 25 mg once a day at night or tab.tegretol 200 mg twice a day
if not subsiding with this treatment you have to consult a neurologist.
