Hi welcome to HCm

I have gone thru your query rgarding sharp pain in the right temple after cardio workout It is a matter of concern .
Dear for your info , starting any vigrous work out after a long gap can be hazardous and can cause various symptoms .

The combination of elevated blood pressure, heart rate, thickened blood and constricted arteries can result in a devastating surge of blood attempting to enter the brain, forcibly expanding the arteriole walls and putting pressure on the meninges.

To avoid exertion headaches during high intensity training sessions, build a solid cardiovascular base-- be hydrated, breathe correctly, and maintain a neutral spine. Also, consider performing the larger compound leg movements at the beginning of the workout. Leg movements are inherently heavy, taxing exercises .

Once an exertion headache occurs, STOP. Do not attempt to push through the rest of the training session, it will only worsen the headache and the duration of symptoms .
Start from Pranayam - Deep Breathing , Anulom Vilom ,Bharamri , Kapalbhaati , Pranayam help to have control on your breath and strengthen heart and can gradualy increase to stronger work outs .
Rather than ignoring this symptom and powering through the pain, consult your doctor to rule out serious causes.
Take Homeo pathic Arnica 30 dose in then morning & evening / 3 days

Always remember, if pain is severe or incapacitating, please see your doctor / professional
Hope this helps solves your query .Take care .All the best .Get well soon

Don't hesitate to come back if have further query .
