My temple feels bruised right above my right temple when i press on it. how long should i wait to see a doctor?

It depends : It depends on your age. If you are over 50 see your doctor and be valuated for temporal arteritis. This is true even if you do not have other symptoms such as headache, visual changes or jaw pain when you chew.
