Just seen neurologist but still worry

Hi guys. I am 28 year old male with no medical problems and according to family doctor and Neuro i am in good shape. I have been hawing headaches for over 5 years they come and go but they are always there. My pain is described as sharp 3 second burst of pain that is in a shape of a line going across my head behind my ear. It can be any where on my head mostly top and around my eyes. I did my blood work and doctor told me that my blood work is fine. I just seen my Neurologist on Apr 24th after 2 months of worrying and waiting. But i was surprised how fast i was out of the office. He preformed some testes and asked me some questions, what he told me is that its muscle tension around my ears that is cosing the problem. I usually have like 10 pains a day that wary in severity but its nothing that i cant handle or when i am working which is labor job lifting heavy granite stone i would get full headache after like 8 hours of work with pressure My other work is graphic designer. Or if i am not sleeping well or if i turn day in to night. When i have full headache i don't get sharp pains at all, what i was thinking that neuro would perform some type of scan to see if there is anything there like tumor that might be source of the problem. I have also seen a eye doctor and everything is fine i don't have any vision problem. I am just wondering how come test was so fast. I mean he did not even offer to help me with pain he just told me to stop worrying and to do yoga. Simplest way to explain my problem have you ever seen the surface of the sun on tv there is always something going on, that how my head fells like there is something always going on and i do focus on my head all the time. What do you guys think should i see another 1

Thanks

Hi dear,
         It is difficult to comment unless you have any investigations like MRI done.Consult a neurologist ,give him your detailed history and follw whatever he suggests.For pain you can take someNSAID but a careful evaluation is to be done.The type of pain you experience could be due to several causes such  as migraine,hypertension,some lesion in brain and many more so dont delay and proceed to a neurologist.
GOOD LUCK
