Default headlight problem

searched the forums, but couldn't find any similar problems...my driver side headlight burned out about two months ago. i replaced it, and then just this evening i got the indicator that my headlight was out again. at closer inspection, the bulb is not burned out so i checked the fuse. no problem there either. any ideas as to what the problem could be before i start checking wiring?

Could it be a tail light perhaps?

Oh Alright, I just misunderstood you...did you touch the bulb at all with your fingers?

Have you checked the voltage at the plug? Do you have power?
