Accepted Answer

Could be significant: Your presenting syptom is not described in detail---how frequent?How long it last?Does the same happen after you sleep or bend over?---the question has to do with increase pressure of spinal fluid when you cough---i want to rule out chiari malformation or pseudotumour cerebri--may need MRI if symptom is always consistent.

Many conditions: Many conditions cause a throbbing pain in the head.  Are you certain it is a nerve pain?  Where is it?  How long does it last?  Is it worse with any activities?  Migraine headache is the most common throbbing head pain, trigeminal neuralgia, tension headache, and headache related to the sinuses are some of the other possible causes.

Question 10

what causes a throbbing feeling in top of head but no pain?

Accepted Answer

: In the absence of headache this may be an irritable superficial scalp nerve which will probably resolve on its own. Throbbing headaches are more worrisome and could be due to migraine, high blood pressure,intracranial aneurysm or increased intracranial pressure. A neurologist would be best to consult as needed if throbbing persists.
