A member asked:

Why sometimes my left side of my head hurts by my temple ? i have slight sharp pains . it doesn't feel like a headache. it would happen then go away

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Neuralgia: Neuralgia is a condition causing sharp, shooting pains coming from nerves in the scalp area and not from brain pathology. They are more of a nuisance disorder than anything serious. If symptoms worsen have your md check you and order any pertinent tests however.
