Spasms in head????

I wrote yesterday about headahces. Today, I'm not experiancing any, BUT I'm having constant weird sensations in my head, my like muscles are spasing in my head. I dunno what they are. Has anyone else had these? Is it a responce to aprin or something? They dont hurt...they just feel weird and are annoying. Is this something serious?

I have been dealing with this problem for about 10 years
this is what helps me.
The number one thing that helps me is very freshly made kale juice
takeing a shower or going swimming for temporary relief.
Jogging/running helps me also but  i am carefull not to overdo it.
Reading to strengthen the mind.
I belive the cause for my head spasms is completely hormonal
in fact when i was feeling my worst the blood test had shown my estrogen was off the chart
and my testosterone very little.
a year later feeling much better i had a blood test again this time testosterone was very high estrogen very little.
Some things people will tell you to try
calcium potassium magnesium b vitamins fish oils with omegas
I try to avoid alcohol nicotene especialy caffine or any other stimulant
to much sugar  and fast food.
i use medical marijuana a tiny tiny amount and not every day
the point is to use just a little to reduce the annoying feeling in my head
so that at least for one moment out of the week my constant thought isnt
"omg my brain feels like is crawling"
to much marijuana is realy bad though and will put me in realy very  bad shape
sorry for my spelling and lack of organization
im so sorry for anyone experianceing this
dont give into despair and wait out the storm
and grace will come as always

      
p.s

do some heavy research on the cons and pros of prescription medication seriously please
do this prior to takeing them please please for the love of god

There are definitely muscles on and covering your entire head and scalp.(think about the muscles used to pull your eyebrows up, they don't end at your face) I have been researching this as I have too been experiencing the weird tingling numbness creepy crawly sensation and came across peripheral neuropathy which may explain some peoples symptoms, I suggest people google it and see if it fits their symptoms

I have the same feeling. It only lasts a few seconds. I don't get a headache but I'm aware of it. I feel it on the left side. It's like it contracts or something like that.
