There are a variety of nerves running along the sides of your head/face. Any burning, cold, tingling, painful jolt, or crawling sensation could be the result of improper stimulation of these nerves = parasthesia. If this is a recurring sensation or you have strange sensations in multiple areas, it might be time to see a neurologist. They can do nerve testing and determine the underlying cause.

Check for head lice as a start. Tick?

Your history is only the beginning of the diagnostic process, not the end. You need to see a doctor who can take a thorough history and do a careful examination. There's a disclaimer for this part of HealthTap, which you agreed to, stipulating that you shouldn't expect a specific diagnosis here.
