I have a bulging vein above my eye that I would REALLY like to treat?

Asked By:anon5860

The vein in question is above my right eye. I had a ultrasound once and doctor told me that it was an AVM. I had an MRI done and found no complications. It bulges when I bend my head, exercise, essentially when my blood pressure rises. I do have slightly high blood pressure. It has a pulse. Standing upright it doesn't show but I can still feel the vein. I have been to several physicians and was told not to worry. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I need help, I am very self conscious about it.
