What's wrong with the pain in the right temple?

A throbbing pain on the right temple may be trigeminal neuralgia. The trigeminal nerve includes the ophthalmic, maxillary and mandibular branches. If the ophthalmic branches are diseased, the patient may show pain in the above areas. Symptomatic treatment is mainly given. Oral carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine may also be given orally. Trigeminal neuralgia is mostly primary, but may also be caused by secondary lesions. Secondary neuralgia is mainly caused by intracranial tumors, but may also be caused by multiple sclerosis. Secondary neuralgia is mainly treated by giving and etiological treatment, while primary neuralgia is generally symptomatic treatment.
