Throbbing results from the dilation of your blood vessels from the increased blood flow. Throbbing often feels like a pulsing sensation and can come and go quickly. The throbbing in your head can also feel like a vibration or mimic a heartbeat. Headaches can often be reduced or cured with a treatment plan.
