What Could Bruise Like Marks On Temples With Recurring Headaches Indicate?

A while ago I was nervous to perform on stage and I saw that my temple looked like it was bruised but when I touch it, it doesn t hurt. It still have my temples like that and I don t know what it is.. Now and then my head starts hurting but only on the side of my temples. Why are my temples like this? How do I make it go away?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,
Welcome to hcm,
It's difficult to diagnose without examining based on your description I advise you to consult your doctor to rule out temporal arteritis, which is an inflammation of arteries lying around temporal area. It causes severe pain, headache, Sometimes blurring of vision.

Thank you
