5. Is Temporal Arteritis Dangerous?
If left untreated, temporal arteritis can seriously damage the blood vessels in your body and could potentially lead to permanent vision loss in one eye. That’s why it’s important to have the disease diagnosed and treated when it’s still in its early stages.
Most symptoms of temporal arteritis develop slowly over time. In some cases, it can take one to two months for symptoms to develop and become highly noticeable. However, some people may experience a rapid onset of symptoms that require immediate attention due to their severity.
