Head throbbing pain depends on the location of the headache as well as the symptoms and characteristics to determine what is best to do. If the patient has a history of neuropathic headache or migraine and the headache is felt as a throbbing pain in the lateral side of the head or the whole head, it may be a migraine attack again. Patients taking oral pain medication is the fastest way to relieve the headache, and can take oral aminogest, ibuprofen extended-release capsules, or oral zolmitriptan tablets, a non-specific medication for migraine. If the patient is having throbbing pain in the face consider it as trigeminal neuralgia, which may be a transient severe pain in the distribution area of the ophthalmic, maxillary and mandibular branches, and there may be trigger points in the face. In this case the patient will have to visit the hospital and may need oral carbamazepine to relieve the headache. If the patient has a transient neuropathic headache with throbbing pain on one side of the head accompanied by conjunctival congestion and tearing, it may be a cluster headache, and oral pain medication may also be required, which may be stronger, such as oral tramadol for relief, and patients may be advised to take oral hormones for relief.
