Pain on the Right Side of Head

[AlyssaMichelle]

I've been experiencing a lot of discomfort on the right side of my head. About a week and a half ago I experienced a pretty severe panic attack (nothing triggered it) and I went to the emergency room because the right side of my head was tingling and felt funny. Ever since that, the pain on the right side of my head won't go away. At its worst it feels like there's pressure on the lower part of my head while the pain still continues to the entire right side, I just notice a pressure along the base. My ear feels like it needs to pop but doesn't and there's kind of a warm sensation. I have an appointment in a couple of days but after a week and a half I'm getting discouraged that this is going to go away. Ibuprofen doesn't help, only sleep but after being awake for at least a half hour the pain is back and lasts all day, the pain averaging back and forth from its extreme. I'm only 19 but I'm still very worried. Side note: I've been struggling with anxiety for some time.

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
This pain could be due to dental pain, ear problem, TMJ, pinched cervical nerve, or due to high blood pressure. Do discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined. Hope this helps. Take care!
