What Does A Bulging Vein On The Temple Indicate?
Hello- I have a bulging temporal vein or artery , i don t know which, on the left side of my temple. Had one about 2 months ago on the right side. It went away after a week. Back of my head hurts a bit, no vision problems. Other than temporal arteritis what could bring this one?

Hi,
Most probably it can be a hematoma.
Generally, it will settle by itself without any treatment.
If the lump persists, you can consult a neurologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
