I had a head injury, and within a couple months, these veins popped up. I also noticed spider veins above and under my eyes. These bigger veins on the side of my eyes/nose are throbbing, they go up to my eyebrows, I can feel the pulse, and they hurt sometimes. It hurts to wear my glasses. I can see the blue around my lips and on the sides of my cheek. I touch the bottom left of my cheek, and the vein will pop up a little ways away from my under eye.
