[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. It is possible that you are feeling the pulsating superficial temporal artery at the temple on the left side. In the absence of continuous pain this is not a serious concern. In some people the superficial temporal artery gets prominent with age and then the pulsations can be transmitted by placing a finger over the skin and this is felt. However since you do feel pain at times, it will help to consult a doctor and confirm that there is no underlying medical condition that is progressing or requires treatment. It is difficult to pinpoint the cause just going by symptoms, but a clinical examination can surely help to narrow the diagnosis if any. Please do not worry.
