A member asked:
Why would the top of my head hurt when i cough? its only in one spot and its just a sharp pain when i cough been happening for 2-3 days now. it dont last long just during the cough?

The issue is whether this is a benign symptom occurring in the scalp and not from within the brain. Since the cough feels superficial and is short lived, I favor a scalp pain. If you still have concerns consult your physician or a neurologist for evaluation & advice. Any appropriate testing will be ordered.
