Is Sharp Pain In Head A Symptom Of Tumor?
I ve had sharp pains in my head, on the side and sometimes in the back, I m only 17. I had a cat scan for it about a month and a half ago and everything was fine. Could this be a tumor? Also I have a sore bump in my head but never hit my head or injured it

Hello
I reviewed the history.
It seems you are having sharp pain in the head. Since you had cat scan with negative result and you are only 17 year old this is very much unlikely to be related with tumor. Hence no need to worry.
Sharp pain in head and headache can be caused by variety of reasons like sinusitis hence these require examination by a physician to find out the probable underlying cause and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
