Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your query and understand your concerns.
The pain you refer may be related to conditions such sinusitis, compressed nerve at upper cervical levels, etc.
Sneezing causes a sudden increase in intracranial pressure and vessels.
It is necessary to get evaluated by a Neurologist in order to understand better your condition.
In some cases no underlying conditions are identified, in these cases Propranolol use helps prevent these episodes.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
