Sharp pains in my skull and headache Posted: 02-12-08 22:59pm


For about 7 days now I have had this headache that will last for at least 5 hours or so a day. Sometimes I get this shooting pain in my head, usually at the back of my skull that starts from the center of my head and goes left or center to the right. This has never happened to me before. I have an identical twin who randomly complained to me the other day of having the same shooting pains in the exact same spot as me, though she did not have a headache. What could be causing this? We are both big worriers and have been under a lot of stress lately, could this be contributing to this problem? I am 24 years old, and never had any other health issues before.

Yes, I do believe that stress can exacerbate symptoms of headaches. Maybe try an exercise that required deep breathing to both oxygenate your system and relax your mind!
