See a doc: If one has new or persisting throbbing of the temples it is something that woudl be worthwhile to have some medical advice and evaliation on - could be heart racing, elevated blood pressure, stress/tension, medication effects, too much caffeine, or other things. While some of these might not be serious - others could. See a doc, good treatment comes from good examination and assessment.
