What Causes And Treatment Of Headache In Children ?
My two year old woke up screaming and crying. Pointing to the right side of his head, just above and behind the temple, saying Ow! This child does not normally complain even when obviously h,urt such as a fall or scrape. I have no idea what this could be, besides just a headache. Any insight?

Hi...by what you quote I feel that the kid woke up scared after a bad dream. If it is really an injury, then there would have been peripheral markers of injury like redness or swelling. So as of now if the baby is normal do not worry about it.
But if the baby is not acting his usual self or if there is continuous vomiting then take him to the physician.
