Pain above temple when breathing in
Posted , 3 users are following.
So for about 11 days now I've had a pain on the left side of my head just above the hair line and sometimes just above the temple which worsens when i breathe in through the left nostril.
if i block the left and breathe through the right or through my mouth its not affected.
I've had a ct scan of my brain which came back clear, i was tried on tramadol, paracetamol and co-codamol none of which has helped.
the last gp i visited said due to it being affected by the one nostril it could be a sinus infection but my white blood cell count came back normal and i have no congestion or mucus and my face doesnt ache its literally just one localised spot on my head.
has anyone experienced anything similar? really getting fed up with it as nothing seems to help, ive been started on a course of penecillin on the chance it may be an infection

Hi Ebony, I just recently saw a Neurologist, for nothing related to this but, he was very upset they did a CT scan instead of an MRI as it shows more of the soft tissue and blood vessels....not sure what you have after a normal CT but maybe ask if an MRI would give you a better picture of something like a blood vessel issue of some sort or if they wont pay for it, maybe an ultrasound of the area...it just seems if you have pain, there's a reason, hopefully you can find out its cause & at least get peace of mind Best Wishes๐โฎ๐โค๐โพ๐ถ๐
