A member asked:
65 year old women coughs up clear flem also comes from her nose she also has vein at the side of her eye which has been painful what could cause this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pressure : Any straining, including coughing, applies pressure on the blood vessels around the eye. This pressure can induce dilation of the vessels to make them more visible. Occasionally, rupture of one of these blood vessels can cause bleeding/bruising of the whites of the eye. This is usually painless and resolves with time.
