2yrs. ago had  craniotomy & the last couple headaches there has been a bulging vein on left side starting just above temple down to ear?

This is probably ok.  It is very common to have bulging veins with headaches.  However, depending on why you had the craniotomy and exactly where the vein is and what it looks like, there is a small chance that you need additional evaluation.  The best bet is to talk to your primary doctor, neurologist, or the surgeon who did the craniotomy.

Question 5

What causes bulging veins in left wrist? when raising above head veins go normal when laying them down they bulge again

Accepted Answer

Bulging veins in the hands and wrists are often associated with aging, being thin and well hydrated.  When the arms are down the blood in your veins have to work against gravity to return to the heart.  When you raise your arms the blood flows with gravity to move more quickly toward the heart.  Unlike the arteries which pulse blood, the movement of blood in the veins is more passive.

Given your age, its most likely just developmental. Follow up with your doctor if you remain concerned. If its an artery, it can be due to inflammation and your doctor may suggest some blood work.
