Hi, I have a throbbing sensation in my left temple. I can feel the throbbing with my fingertips. This is a new sensation to me! Worried I am having an aneurysm . There is no pain and it s been on-and-off for two days. I am 27 and a little bit overweight , but have had blood pressure checked before (when I donate blood, for example) and it s always been fine.
Halloween we keep our fingertips over our blood pipes (arteries) which are located close to skin then the throbbing sensations can be felt. There is an artery called superficial temporal artery which passed up the temple region and that is what you are feeling. You can feel it i almost all people (Try it !!). It is not a common feature of aneurysm. However you can always consult a physician to clarify your doubts.
