About Throbbing (the broader symptom)

This summary describes Throbbing, the broader symptom. Sternum Throbbing is a more specific topic.

Throbbing is not its own topic on MedlinePlus, and the page linked here is about headache. MedlinePlus says headache is the most common form of pain, and that the most common type is a tension headache from tight muscles in the shoulders, neck, scalp, and jaw. It also names migraine, cluster headache, and sinus headache as other common types, and it does not describe throbbing outside the head.

When to seek care

MedlinePlus says to tell your health care provider about sudden, severe headaches. Get medical help right away if you have a headache after a blow to your head, or a headache with a stiff neck, fever, confusion, loss of consciousness, or pain in the eye or ear.
