What causes pain in temple when coughing?

My mother always suggests steam inhalation with a drop of eucalyptus oil to relieve head pressure during a cough. However, head pain triggered specifically by coughing can sometimes need a doctor's evaluation to rule out pressure changes. Please consult a physician.

Please do not ignore head or temple pain that happens when you cough or strain. I ignored a constant headache once and it turned out to be a severe sinus infection that needed heavy treatment. Go to a doctor and get it checked early.

I experienced this temple pain whenever I coughed during a bad bout of flu. The doctor told me it was due to increased pressure in my head from coughing, and it went away once my cold cleared. Please visit a clinic to see if it is the same for you.

Hey, don't stress too much! It is very common for coughing to cause a temporary head rush or temple ache because of the sudden strain. Try to stay hydrated and rest your eyes, but if it keeps happening, let's get a doctor to check it out.
