Hello,
It can be something called “temporal neuralgia” one of the worst pain condition. As of now you can take analgesics like Gabapentin or Tramadol which are quite effective for neuropathic pain as in this case. If pain persists, you have to consult a neurologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
