Como cuando sientes un ramalazo de dolor de repente, como el dolor de cabeza que tengo ahora :(
Al menos así lo interpreto. Que el dolor no siempre está allí, sino que se aparece de repente, por más que uno quiera ignorarlo...
ramalazo
4. m. Dolor que aguda y repentinamente acomete a lo largo de una parte del cuerpo.

rear its ugly head
Appear. This phrase is used only of something undesirable or unpleasant, as in \"The interview went very well until a question about his academic record reared its ugly head.\"
This expression was first recorded in slightly different from in Anthony Trollope\'s _Barchester Tower_ (1857): \"Rebellion had already reared her hideous head [[within the [bishop\'s] palace]].\"
From _The American Heritage Dictionary of Idioms_ (1997) by Christine Ammer

Once sex rears its ugly \'ead it\'s time to steer clear. (Margery Allingham, _Flowers for the Judge_, 1936) |
