Neurologist,  's  Response
The description of your condition is difficult to know at this moment since little time has passed compared to the vague and nonspecific symptoms, however, if I were to take a guess at what you're describing several things coming to mind would be: Trigeminal Neuralgia, mild trauma to the head or orbit, Initial symptoms of headaches called "jabs and jolts", or SUPRAORBITAL NEURITIS from supraorbital nerve entrapment on the right side. Write to www.bit.ly/drdariushsaghafi and I can help you with more questions. A neurologist who is a headache specialist can tell you which one of those possibilities is most likely since they will be able to examine you and get more history to help decide on the correct diagnosis.
