Question Pain on top of head

Sometimes I get a pain on the top of my head and it hurts when my hair moves or when I touch it. It feels like someone is pulling my hair out.
Does this sound like sinus or neck related?
Thank you.

Hi Lilcee and welcome

To me that doesn't sound like either. I've had that a few times with my migranes. How long have you been getting them?.
Take care and hope you feel better soon

I've had it off and on for quite awhile. I'm now sure what a migrane is like. The reason I thought of sinus or neck is because I have trouble with both and wondered if this was related.

Hi Lilcee

Sorry that im not much help, I'm not to sure. Keep looking back on this page, most people on here know more than the doctors, or at least that is what I have found.
Take care

That does not sound like sinus related at all but since you do suffer from sinus problems you should consider taking a good antioxidant supplement so you can keep the sinus problems under control. Has anyone ever checked your blood pressure when you have these type of headaches? I have a co-worker who gets headaches on the top of her head and although she doesn't mention her hair hurting it could. She has elevated BP's when she has these headaches. As for a migraine.............if you have one you will know you have one. The pain is usually one sided and often feels like someone if poking an ice pick directly into the side of your skull. Many people have nausea and sensitivity to light/sound with a migraine. The pain is generally unbearable and if you don't have medication for them about the only way to get rid of them is to try to sleep it off. Normal over the counter pain meds will not generally touch a migraine.
