Would sharp head pain caused by anuerysm or tumor hurt more when pushed on the painful area?

Not usually: Scalp tenderness is not usually associated with intracranial pathology. Other causes of headache such as sinusitis, tension or neuralgia may have local tenderness. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
