There has been a great deal of research on turmeric's anti-cancer properties, but results are still very preliminary. Evidence from test tube and animal studies suggests that curcumin may help prevent or treat several types of cancers, including prostate, breast, skin, and colon cancer.
Vigorous coughing is one possible reason for burst eye capillaries. Photo Credit Thinkstock/Stockbyte/Getty Images. When a capillary in the white part of the eye bursts -- called a subconjunctival hemorrhage -- the appearance of blood can be rather dramatic and alarming. Often, there is no history of trauma to the eye -- the blood simply appears spontaneously.
Broken capillaries can occur anywhere on the body. They appear as red bruise spots on skin surface. Particularly they are noticeable on face and legs. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels under the skin surface. They break easily as they are delicate and fragile, especially when they are subjected to outer or inner pressure. Mere scrubbing your skin too hard or too much exposure to sun can cause capillary damage.
