Sharp Head Pain: Causes, Symptoms & When to See a Doctor


Question
What can cause sharp pains in the head?  They don't last real long but are scary.  Could this be a tumor?  I am having sinus problems and pms right now, could that cause it?  I also have TMJ.  Thanks.

Answer
Dear Asks,   Sinus problems, pms with stress and TMJ can all cause this sharp head pain....  However, also can a tumor or other type of brain/head problem like blood vessel disease etc.....

The only way to get a proper diagnosis is see your doctor and with the knowledge of all of your medical history, he/she will be able to help you.....  He/she may also want to do an MRI of your brain to check for tumors or blood vessel disease....

Thank you,   karen
