A member asked:
Im 33 and area behind left temple is sore to touch. no headache or other symptoms except mild pressure lying down in sinus area. should i see a doctor? going on a couple days now.

Depends on pain: Without headache and mostly sore with touching, this sounds like a soft tissue issue inflammation (muscle, skin or surface of bone) instead of something internally. Unless pain is progressively worse, it is reasonable to monitor for 7-10 days before getting an evaluation.
