A member asked:
16 weeks pregnant some sinus issues, had pulsing pain between top of ear and temple, stopped after about 2 minutes, could this be an aneurysm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very unlikely: it sounds like you are feeling the temporal artery pulse. the chances of this being an aneurysm is very very small. just let your doctor know so they can physically evaluate it and reassure you more definitely.
