What Is Causing Pressure In Left Temple Along With Mild Dizzy Spells?

Hi,



Im worried because I've been feeling pressure in my left temple for like a week now. Also I dont know if is an idea of mine but I get kind of a very mild dizziness spells. Sometimes the pressure is worse than other.

Yesterday I ate beef jerky and the left side of temple had a lot of pressure and felt like that for a couple hours, the right side no pressure. Also, I get very mild shooting sharp pain in the left side of the head. No nausea or vomiting.

Hi. What you have noted is called a 'pointed' symptom / pain with mild dizziness. Although you do not have nausea or vomiting, it i better to get a CT Scan of the brain and Neurologist's opinion as many diseases can have a trivial looking symptoms to start with.
