I am having swelling on both sides of my head in the temples. It intensifies when I bend over , get too hot and sometimes it just happens. There is also a feeling of pressure in my jawline area and some swelling there as well. No resent trauma. The symptoms come and go but seems to be getting more consistent. This morning I woke up with a broken blood vessel in my eye. Please help me with a diagnosis or with what kind of Physidcian I need to see. When this first startted I saw a cardiologist, no heart prblem detected or signs of stroke. CT of head and face negative.

Other than referring you back to a doctor for further examination, there's not much more that I can suggest.

Perhaps you can keep a log of what you eat and see if there's a connection.
Take it in to the doctor with you.

PS: You might try to cut back on caffine and salt.
