Sharp head pain

I have  been having this sharp head pain for years and I don't know what it is.  Last one I had was Feb. 17 after 7pm and the pain was about a 9 on the pain scale if 10 is the worse pain ever.  The pain was in my right temple area of my head.  The next day I was very nausiated all day and felt like I was having little headaches.  I was told my my doc it was an irritated nerve but I have experianced a few more today that were not as bad.  first one was at 12:15 at a pain of 2, then at 12:20 pain of 1 and last one I have had tonight was a one also all on the right in the same area and this time is was more of a dull sharpness without any nausia.  I would really like some insight on this please if you can?

Hi,

Sharp headache in the temple region can be due to allergies, TMJ or temporomandibular joint disorder, sinusitis, migraine, ear infections and dental abscess.
I would suggest you to take OTC pain killers and consult your GP about it.

Thanks
