Understanding Head Pain: Causes, Relief, and When to Seek Medical Advice

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
head pain/aches;


sometimes it seems like nothing feels worse than a nasty headache. it throbs,it bangs,it squeezes. it can feel as if its twisting your head inside out and wringing all the energy from your body.

headaches are incredibly widespread. nine out of ten headaches are muscle contraction headaches,also known as tension headaches.
often triggered by stress and fatigue,these headaches are caused by sustained contraction of the head and neck muscles.
tension usually strikes in the late afternoon and can feel like a tight band is wrapped around your head.
the notorious migrane occurs when blood vessels in the scalp dilate. if often begins early in the morning with intense pain on one side of the head or behind the eyes.
headahce pain in women may be connected to the menstrual cycle.

i feel if this a serious matter,[everyday]you should see a doctor for proper treatment.
