Im having really bad sharp pains in my head. It doesnt last long like headaches or migrains do. They come randomly and go away in 10-15 mins. Ive also had a blood taste in my mouth when i cough. But none has come out as of what ive seen. Would you know whats causing this or a diagnosis?
Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sharp pains in my head along with bloody taste in my mouth is because of nerve damage, sinusitis, migraine, neuralgia or bells palsy. Blood taste in mouth can also occur due to acid reflux, or upper respiratory track infection. I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper examination. Doctor may order CT scan, throat swab test along with viral culture test and treat accordingly. Doctor may also refer you to neurologist for head problem. For now do warm saline gargles, maintain proper oral hygiene and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
