What are my chances?

[curious88848]

So Ive been feeling sharp pains in my head every once in a while in my head, they only tend to last a couple seconds. they don't tend to be in one spot. They tend to jump around all over my head, sometimes in the back and sometimes in the front. I dont have nausea, vomitting, blurred vison or any other symptoms. My question is could this be a symptom of a brain tumor at all? ANd what are my chances at my age and history of getting one? I am 21 years old and exercise regularly, also I checked and I dont think I have any family history of cancer at all.

You should definately go to your doctor and check it out> as sharp pain esp in back or front of head can be associated with tumors or inflammed veins or arteries in your brain,,but i am not a doctor so dont just believe that you have something serious but its better to be careful than to be sorry. Good luck

Meaning, it does not sound like anything serious, i.e. a brain tumor.  

If it persists, you can consult you PCP/Family Physician about a scan/image of your head.

benign as in what exactly?

How often do you experience this?  

From reading you post, it sounds like something benign.
