Symptoms
Sharp stabbing pain in the forehead, Pain that peaks about 20 to 60 seconds after it begins and goes away in about the same time, Pain that rarely lasts longer than five minutes.
Treatment

Statistics
A thousand and thirteen young adults were included in the study. A clear relationship was observed between headache and depression among the participants. Multivariate analyses demonstrated that nausea or vomiting related to headache and higher headache-related disability scores were independent factors associated with depression. Migraine was more associated with depression than the other types of headache.
