Frequent Sharp Pain In Temple Area For Short Duration. No Relief With Headache Medicines

Well, never expected to be throwing my problem out here tonight; however, here goes.......I have had sharp pains for five days now in the right temple area..........not constant...........at most, probably 20 times a day......max. Short in duration, and have NEVER had this before.
DOESNT SEEM TO change when taking over-the-counter allergy Tylenol or any other headache meds.
Its tolerable pain, but scary. Thanks

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood your concerns. If you were my patient I will advise you to take headset tablet for this for temporary relief and I want you to have a ct brain done to rule out other internal pathologies. If it came back normal then you need to take prophylaxis with topiramate or any beta blocker drugs to get some free intervals. Thank you.
