Suggest Treatment For Pulsation On Top Of The Head
Hi. My husband is saying that he feels a slow but steady pulse on the top of his head. He said that he remembers exactly when it started about 3 hours ago when he bent down to tie our son s hockey skates. He said that it felt it all of a sudden and it has not stopped since then.

Hello,
In my opinion, this sensation doesn't mean anything serious.
It is mainly linked to temporary increased intracranial pressure after excessive bending.
In other cases, when it persists, may be linked to high blood pressure.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
