What Causes Tugging Pain In The Temple Region?
Question: I am feeling a tugging in my temple area, I do not have a headache and rarely get them.
Brief Answer:
Is your vision okay? How severe are the headaches?
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.
I have reviewed this information fully. You seem concerned about a possible temporal arteritis. This is unlikely given the nature of your symptoms at this time. I will not recommend any medical intervention at this time. I will recommend that you monitor only at this time. If anything changes or new symptoms such as severe headache, visual changes or increased frequency of these tingling sensations, kindly keep me informed.
In all, these symptoms are not altogether suggestive of any worrisome or specific disease condition. Monitor only at this time and keep me updated.
I wish you well and hope to hear from you! If you need further information clarifications if need be.
