Hello,
The possible causes are:
1. Perivascular mantle lymphoma may affect temporal artery.
2. Migranous headache.
3. Cervical Spondylosis with compressive neuropathy.
4. Occipital Neuralgia etcetera.
Until complete examination, is done, it is difficult to say what it is. Please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
