Question
I hve been suffering from pain over a point on my head near top of left ear. The pain is almost at all times at same point.
It is something like an impulse of pain as if someone's tapping hard on my head. the pain is periodic with intervals of a few seconds to a minute.
Am really anaware of what to do.
plz help me out soon..

the pain has been from few days only...

Answer
Without an examination there is not much I can do. So I strongly suggest that you let a doctor, preferably a neurologist, check you. Whatever it is, your symptoms are not those of a brain tumour! Good luck!
