Sharp recurring burning pain top of head close to the middle.comes for a few seconds and then goes.could this be an aneurysm ready to burst?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly but doubtfu: Unfortunately, aneurysms don't always send a warning before they rupture. Typically the headaches,come after the fact, unless the size or location of its mass dictate otherwise. If you are concerned, see a neurologist for a work up and brain scan.
