i get a severe headache in my right temple .it can happen anytime but quite often it happens in the middle of the night. i feel fine going to bed and then wake with this awful pain.i cannot touch the top of my head sometimes for hours. sometimes i tink i get it because my temperature rises a little and i get warm. my face goes reddy brown and my eye starts blinking and is watery.i take two disprin and sometimes that helps. sometimes i have to take 4 disprin. it may go then for a while and come back.nothing seems to help prevent it.light doesnt bother me but sometimes noise does. i dont feel like vomiting. my tummy is ok. sometimes air helps i sit for hours i the garden during the night. i am adult male and i smoke. thanks for your help.Francis.

What Causes Severe Headache In Right Temple?
Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM! Your symptoms seem to be caused by temporal arteritis, which is an inflammatory disorder affecting the temporal arteries. I would recommend consulting with a neurologist for a physical exam and some tests: - a brain CT scan or MRI - complete blood count, PCR, sedimentation rate for inflammation. It is a serious medical condition and I would strongly recommend consulting with your doctor as soon as possible to exclude this disorder. Hope to have been helpful! Kind regards, Dr. Aida
