A member asked:
Headache on the right side, in front with tingling sensation on scalp like pins and needles. is it life threatening?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe? Maybe not?: Migraines can present with a variety of symptoms, even stroke-like symptoms. I'd talk with your doctor to find out if this is benign or something more serious. An MRI of the brain may be helpful.
