Brain Aneurysm Pain: Symptoms, Location & What to Watch For


Question
what type of pain would a brain aneurism would present. because the type of pain i'm having is very localized to that one specific area in the back of my head (go up 2 inches from the top of the right ear and then back about 2 inches) in that very same spot, and it's an intermittent pain, and when its there it usually lasts for along time like a pressure, with occasional quick sharp stabbing pains. also it sometimes hurts into my right ear. also today i noticed that in that spot i was feeling and i can feel a slight knot/lump right there, and i sometimes get ear ringing.

Answer
the pain can vary, but it is usually severe, quick onset and can last a few minutes or longer.... the lump is prob a lymph node.  that sounds more like a neuritis, inflammation of one of the nerves that is getting pinched a little, but it is hard to tell over the internet.
