What Causes Pain On Left Side Of The Head While Suffering From Fibromyalgia?
I am a 59 year old woman, I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, Psoriatic arthritis, & Osterarthritis. I have been getting unusual pain on left side of my head, very short and loud, 7 - 8 on scale of 1-10. It started a few days ago. I have no idea what or why. This may have been an error...I can t afford the fee for your help, sorry for putting you thru this. Thanks anyway.

Hello,
If the pain is for less then a week and you don't have other symptoms with it like numbness in hands or feet, problem with speech or swallowing, no vision problems, no fever, etc, then very likely this is nothing to worry. Take paracetamol and ibuprofen to help with pain.
If you notice no improvement with the pain killers or you are getting any worse, you will need to see a doctor soon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
