Is Swollen Artery Above My Temple Caused Due To Large Amounts Of Advil And Xanax Intake?
I just noticed a swollen artery above my right temple. I feel fine now but yesterday I had an excruciating headache on the left side of my face along with a fever all day long. I thought I had a sinus infection but it seems to have subsided today after talking large amounts of Advil and Xanax. I never had this swollen artery before and am very concerned. Should I rush myself to the hospital or am I panicking? Note, I also take HRT with estrogen. Thank you very much.

HI
Thank for asking to CHM
If you are on hormone therapy then this type of headache is very likely, the swollen artery which you have seen in fact this could be a normal one but in state of headache this looks swollen to the patient, you have manage the headache with the tab. Acetaminophen every time when ever you experience it, hope this information helps you, take care and have nice day.
