Suggest Treatment For Varicose Veins On The Head

what causes the veins to stick out in the head? in front of the temple. now my blood pressure is normal. i was in the hospital to lower my blood pressure 2 days ago. i had headaches while at the hospital. because there was a slight change in my ekg, they gave me a nuclear stress test which showed no problems. at the moment, my brain doesn t seem clear as normal. thanks

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

The veins have no clinical relevance. If anything, dilated veins in the head and neck may suggest congestive heart failure or occlusion of superior vena cava.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Anders Mark Christensen, General Surgeon
