6. Can Temporal Arteritis Heal on Its Own?
Temporal arteritis may go away on its own, but that scenario is not very likely. Some people experience an ebb and flow of symptoms, meaning that headaches and other symptoms associated with the condition come and go at times. When the symptoms subside, it may seem like the disease has gone away, but symptoms are likely to come back eventually.
Since the condition can be so serious and can lead to permanent damage to vision and vessels, it’s not wise to wait for it to resolve on its own. Instead, treatment is recommended.
