What Causes Pain In The Right Eye And Right Side Of The Head?
I woke last night with a pain in the right side of the crown of my head. It has continued off and on today. Also vague pain around my right eye and right side of my head up to my crown. It s not severe pain but enough to irritate me and worry a little. Could it be stress, a stroke (I have family history) or anything to worry about? I am 61 years old. I hate to bother my doctor and sound like a hypochondriac

Hello,
As a first line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist, better to consult a neurologist and plan for an MRI brain to rule out possible intracranial (inside the brain) causes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
