What Causes One Sided Headaches?

I experience a severe shocking type of headache-usually on one sjde and in the temple area.Shocks are quick and last one to three seconds.This may last an hour to several hours and may occur several months apart. Is this a sign of a possible oncoming stroke? Thankyou for the reply. YYYY@YYYY

Hello

As you explain the situation this seems like a neural headache. Try to take painkillers to relieve it. If it helps than no worries if not than you should discuss with your doctor for this.
