What does it mean when there is pain on the right side of your head?

What's going on when you have pain (but not quite a headache that you're aware of) on the right side of your head towards the top? It happened yesterday and again today it and it comes and goes. How concerned should I be about this?

They happen for no reason.
They hurt really bad.
I don't know why they happen.
They are sharp.
They happened today at school.
They happen once every day.

I also have the same problem. I've been in 2 major car accidents had 2 major concussions one a grade 3 and the other a grade 2. Not to mention multiple minor concessions upon recovery because I am a very unlucky person. But I've developed sharp, incruciateing pains that force me to even blurt out. Why is this happening?

I'm 18 and have had multiple concussions over the years. I have hit my head against a floor and what-not. But I am experiencing memory loss, confusion, and a feeling of exhaustion all of the time. And whenever I get headaches they are only on one side of my head and behind my eye. I have not had a concussion since last summer but now i'm feeling these symptoms. What could this possibly be?
