hi everyone. I just got over what seemed like some sort of sinus infection (sneezing, runny nose, sinus pressure on nose, coughing).....but the thing is, ever since then, i have had a constant tingling feeling sometimes on the back of my head on the left side, and sometimes on the side of my head on the left side. Its not really painful, but more of just a light throb/tingle, that doesnt hurt, but just annoys me. Of course, I feel this and i immediately think brain tumor, but i read that most brain tumor cause pain in the frontal lobe, yet i have no pain there what soever. Anyway, any suggestions? Is it worth getting checked?

I have the same tingling on the back of my head and I'm currently just getting over a sinus infection as well...I got paranoid as well and got MRI's done and thankfully no tumor. All physicians I asked had no clue why I would feel that way since the sinus area should only effect nerves in the face. I still get the tingling from time to time and just try to ignore it.
