More information is needed to determine the etiology of these headaches. Where does the pain occur-is it always in the same area? All over pain? Is it only on the temple area on one or both sides? Any associated symptoms, like vision loss, nausea/vomiting, etc.? You should see a doctor-you can do a consult on HealthTap to find out more about your headaches. More testing may be needed for diagnosis

If the head discomfort is in the same spot and is fleeting, it could be neuralgia which is superficial & more of a nuisance than anything from within the brain. Your physician or a neurologist can evaluate & advise you if these symptoms continue.
