What Causes Throbbing Pain In Temple Blood Vessel?

Hi, I have recently been getting a throbbing pain in the blood vessel on my left temple during sex and/or masterbation. I used to get it infrequently sometimes but it hasn't happened for approximately 4 years. The pain continues indefinitely unless I sleep it off. I'm a 25 yr old male.

Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

Looking at your description this might be related to migraine or vascular headache. You need not to worry, it is treatable condition.

I would advise you to take acetaminophen/ ibuprofen for 2 to 3 days with antacids for headache, if it persists or aggravates further than you need to see a neurologist for detailed evaluation and if need be an MRI or MRV.

Meanwhile complete abstinence of smoking or alcohol consumption of you are into it.
Relaxation exercises to allay anxiety and stress, stay cheerful and lead a happy life.

Hope this helps you
Best wishes
