[|Human|] My 16 year old son is feeling a strange sensation on the right side of the top of his head....sort of a pulsating feeling....he is very worried that something is wrong...he has no pain, he says it just feels abnormal....I told him he needs to be able to explain it better if he is going to go to the doctor....have you ever heard of this? should I take him to the doctor?
[|AI|]  Hi, This feeling of pulsation in the head can be due to various reasons. It may simply be due to stress, anxiety or fear or sometimes lack of proper sleep. Even anemia (reduced hemoglobin), prolonged fasting or low blood sugar can cause such symptoms. Sometimes it can be related to other medical conditions like thyroid or heart or arthritis (blood vessels). I feel first let him have a good diet and a good nights sleep. Let him relax a bit esp if he is too much into studies. You can even talk to him about any kind of anxiety or stress he is facing at school or with friends. If still the symptoms persist then do go some investigations like complete blood count, TSH, sugar levels, electrolytes and ECG. Then we can have exact diagnosis. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
