What Causes Bulging Vein Above And Around The Temple?
I am 23 years old, 160 pounds. Workout moderately 2 times per week on average. I have just noticed a bulging, squiggly looking vein above/around my left temple that just appeared 5 days ago. It pulsates and you can feel it when placing a finger on it. It becomes highly visible when i get heated and gets better when i am inside. What could this be and could this be permanent?
