Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
The pain in the side of the head can be because of the myofacial pain or temporomandibular joint disorder. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. You can take an analgesic with muscle relaxant like ibuprofen and chlorzoxazone respectively(if you are not allergic).
The metallic taste can be secondary to the use of antibiotics. Nothing to be panic, once you stop taking antibiotics, it will come down by its own. Drink lot of water.
I hope i have answered your query. Take care.
