A member asked:
I have a pulsing feeling in the back right portion of my head that happens every few minutes and mild or dull pain with each pulse, what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several things: Pain that severe needs to be worked up by your doctor in person. He/she will listen to you, perform an examination and possibly order some tests to see what's wrong with you.

Headaches only on the front part of my head. I feel as if there is pulsing too . Could it be a migraine and never had them before.
