Sharp pain in head on left side

2021-08-09 13:56:07
Since 15-20 days, i am getting sharp pains in my head on the left side. It feels that the pain comes from deep inside the head, like from the brain. The pain lasts for 4-5 seconds. And comes every 2-3 hours. I have no other symptoms. I am really worried. Is it normal? And the more i think about it, the more frequent it is. Please help 🙏
