Headaches again

I’m having a bad time atm

Does anyone get head pains in your forehead like a sharp shooting pain what is this ?

Yes. And in the temples etc, its just all stress that brings it on, and the more you think about it the more you may notice it, take some paracetomol and just chill xx

I’ve had persistent tension headaches as an anxiety/stress symptom in the past, along with some migraines / shooting pains in my head. One time the shooting was in the centre, and so bad I screamed and cried. Caffeine makes it worse, try to cut back or eliminate if you can. Cold weather also made mine worse. I actually put a woolly hat on with the terrible shooting pain and it subsided. It’s irritated nerves that cause it. The numbness tho.. never had that, but I read if a nerve is pinched or trapped it can cause numbness. Sounds all connected to me, though I’m no doc. Might put your mind at ease to get checked out xx

I replied on your other post, but sharp shooting head pain is from irritated nerves (my triggers for it are stress, caffeine, cold weather, slight injury - or a combination of them) nothing to worry about but annoying and can be mild-extremely painful, make sure your head is kept warm and some soothing warm milk / cosy drinks may help. And/or painkillers xx
