pressure in left temple

Hi. I'm a 24 year old female and for a couple of days now I have been experiencing some pressure and sometimes a pulsing in my left temple. It happens off and on and so far it hasn't lasted too long when I experience it. I have been getting dull headaches every now and then, that either seem to be on the right side of my head or my forehead. I have been stressed out and have been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and have TMJ problems where the left side of my jaw hurts. I noticed my jaw on the left side hurts again and can hardly open it. Could this been an aneurysm or something else serious or could it just be due to stress/ anxiety and TMJ problems?

try a asprin a day for a week it may help . just one asprin a day though dont over do it cause it can thin out blood too much , it should help and it should help you keep from
a heart attach and or stroke.

Coming from someone who has had an anuerysm I would say it sounds like TMJ/ anxiety, however if your headaches get severe or you start noticing troubles with movement or speech along with the headache, then I would consider looking into it further.
