What Causes Pulsations In Head?

It's only been lately, for the past few weeks, that I can feel my veins pumping on both sides of my temple. Even when writing this I can still feel them. I don't get headaches, from time to time I do. I have not have any headaches recently, but except for the past week; it ended around three days ago. My only problem is that nowl I can feel a vein pumping pumping on the right top side of my head (and it hurts a little bit). What are the possibilities that I have hypertension?

Hello

Thank you for trusting HCM

Dear pulsating feeling in head felt in migraine, tension and cluster headaches. Hypertensive patients also feel same feeling. But few conditions like haemangiomas feel same thing.

Please consult your doctor he will investigate and treat you accordingly.
