This is not a regular occurence. It happens periodically.
Medications are over the counter
The "needles" are all over, not on one side.
Headache feels on the top and front of my head.
No nausea.

Hello,
Thanks for the reply.
Periodic symptoms of "generalized sensation of needles" and headache do not correlate with any significant disease or abnormality.
Just to continue with the symptomatic treatment is better option.
Get Hemoglobin ,Complete blood count and serum calcium levels checked to rule out anemia and calcium deficiency.
Hope this answers your query.
