Is a burning sensation in your head normal while having a cold?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Might be normal: I don't think that this is a sign of something terrible. Could be just simply related to the cold. Lots of fluids, Tylenol, (acetaminophen) rest and see how you feel over the next day or two.
