Suggestions For Experiencing A Throbbing Vein On The Nose
Hi I've been experiencing a throbbing vein on the right side of my nose, going up to my eye for a few days now. It's shown up before, but never lasted this long.
I recently moved to California and have considered allergy or stress, but I don't think those are very likely.

Hi.
This is a very classical finding of a condition of idiopathic venous thrombosis.
Idiopathic in our language means , the cause is not not yet known to the medical fraternity...
There is no specific treatment and best be left alone for the body to heal on its own...
Do not rub over or touch frequently.... This is a bit danger area of the face where the veins can be directly communicated to the veins of the brain .
