I completely agree with this the left side of my mouth will get very numb.
Well am I glad I found this. I am 45, female and this is happening to me approx every week for the past few months. Its worrying me. Dr said could be glue ear, but ears are clear but looked at me with a glazed expression when I described it. I have never had injuries but since being 18 suffered from migraine with aura and aura and wondered if linked. The migraines affect speech, concentration, there is tingling and numbness and zig zags in eyes, always starts on the left side, where this has been happening. Wish we could get answer
I have had this happen to me. It hasn't happened in a long time, but as a child it happened often. My mom has had the same thing happen to her. I don't know what it is and would also be very intrusted in finding out what it is.
I have this same feeling too. Today at school I had a snap in the back of my head right side when I turned my head too quickly. It felt like a steak of lightning going through the base of my skull up to the center of my brain like fire burning. It put me in tears and my teacher & friends didn't know what I was talking about. My mom gets this too.
I get this too, since I was a child, I am 47 now..seems like nobody knows what I am speaking of either. I may get them once every 3 months or sometimes like the other day twice in one day, It really comes on quick and burns like crazy, can be anywhere on my head not in same place, can last a few seconds for a mild one up to 20 or 30 for a bad one. Wish we could get some answers.
I have exactly the same it's horrible and it's right on the top of my head , not been to my gp about it yet but after reading this I may go thanks
I get it when I get out of bed in the morning.
I am struggling with the same burning sensation in the right side of my head and sometimes also feels rushing inside the head, I have visited my GP he said never heard such things, if anyone can help please
Thanks for this explanation. It makes sense and funny this happened to me just a few minutes ago and so decided to google it. I teach yoga and taught 2 classes today which involved many movements of the neck & so perhaps that brought it on. I have had this happen to me all my life once or twice a yr. and I'm 58 now.
mine is not related to turning my head, but rather at my pc too long (over an hour) it feels like a torch it is so hot. I get relief when I turn cold water on my head or put an ice cube to my ear. I have diabetes they say it plays with the nerves. Funny, I can watch tv for hours and it never happens.
I've had this since I was a child also. I turn my neck suddenly and as far as I can remember its always the left side of my head. It feels like a tight band of hot burning pain from my neck sometimes into my tongue and up my scalp. It does last for about five or ten seconds and scares me everytime. Everything most of you said has happened to me. Two days ago it happened at work also and I tried to explain it, and ask if others had. One woman had kind of something like this happen to her. The rest of my co-workers were like "what are you talking about. It is random and usually once or twice a year.
This post is so interesting to me. I have had this issue my whole life...i will be 48 next month. It happens when I turn my head and it actually hurts at first. Then it kind of burns and just dissapates....its odd and I have never met anyone that understands what I am talking about!
