It Seems That I Have A Broken Blood Vessel In
Question: it seems that I have a broken blood vessel in my eye that appeared on Sunday night. I expected it to improve each day, but it is not and seemed to get worse. It is pretty solid red on one side of my eye and extend towards the back of my eyeball. Should I be concerned or will this clear with time?
Brief Answer:
Hey the blood does spread with time so dont worry
Detailed Answer:
hey thanks for the question. Its called subconjunctival hemorrhage and even though it looks alarmin but it shouls go in two to three weeks so dont worry . We have to find some reasons for it and It can be due to blood pressure rise , cough , constipation or trauma . The blood spreads in initial few days and then gets yellow and then goes away so dont worry . Hope my answer helps you . Regards.
