What Causes A Throbbing Sensation On My Forehead?
I have a pulse sensation in my forehead over my right eye. It is periodic maybe every 30 seconds or longer and sometimes much longer. It feels like a single tap inside my forehead when it happens. I am a 60 year old female in excellent health. Reasonably fit. Have you any suggestion

Hello dear
Throbbing sensation over forehead, unilateral headache with or without nausea, vomiting is usually due to migraine headache.
Only pulsating sensation in eye may be associated with some aneurysm.
Don't worry, you can consult a neurologist and evaluated for proper examination, investigation and treatment.
Hoping for your good health.
