Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i just felt something like a snap in the back of my head which gave a sharp kinda burning pain across back of head and around left side towards front of my head, it eased off after about 3 minutes but now i have a warm feeling in my head. Just wondering what it may be??
There is a possibility that your headache may come from neck spinal cord issues. Probably a pinched nerve or a herniated disc or spondyloarthrosis may cause it. You may need to do an x-ray of the spine. Put warm and cold compresses alternating them often. Use anti-inflammatory drugs such Advil or acetaminophen for pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
