I would explain as follows:

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Regarding your concern, I would explain that this pulse could be related to the temporal artery, which normally in this region. You should know that it is quite normal for this pulse to be present during physical activity or anxiety. The presence of the pulse, indicates increased blood flow in the artery and is not a sign of blockage. I would like to know if you have any symptoms like headache, pain in this region during pressure on this artery or blurring vision in this eye?If no such symptoms are present, there is nothing to worry about. I would just recommend you to monitor your blood pressure values and heart rate.

Regards,
Dr. Iliri
