What Could Be Cause Of Intense Throbbing Pain In Head?
I get intense throbbing pain in my head. It started about two weeks ago. Now I have them at least twice a day. They come all of a sudden and last about a minute. It feels like the throbbing and pain surrounds my head. What could be causing this?

Hi
Thanks for writing in.
There are various causes of headache:-
- stress
- hypertension
- migraine
If your pain is unilateral & aggravates on exposure to light,then it can be migraine.
You need to rule out the proper cause by consulting physician.
Go for proper investigations.
Take proper rest.
Take paracetamol & diclofenac combination in case of headache.
Do not take tension.
