Bulging veins on forehead symptoms of aneurysm?

No: Varicose veins along the temple augur no intracranial disease disease such as aneurysms; it's most genetic and may develop due to superficial trauma.

Positional change.: The veins in the face just as the veins in the rest of the body change in size depending on changes in position as well as changes in levels of hydration and changes in pressure in the chest and abdominal cavity. In the face, the veins decrease with standing and increase with lying down. Straining or laughing can increase the pressure the size of the forehead veins.This is not a sign of aneurysm.
