The decisions of the Supreme Court are made inside a white marble courthouse in Washington, D.C. Here the nine justices receive approximately 7,000 to 8,000 requests for hearings each year. Of these the Court will agree to hear fewer than 100.
Some of the causes of broken facial blood vessels include: Aging. Prolonged sun exposure. Pregnancy and childbirth. Chronic systemic or topical corticosteroid use. Oral contraceptive use (birth control pills) Estrogen replacement therapy. Excessive alcohol use.
Injury to the skin may also break small blood vessels under the skin and cause more swelling and bruising than you would expect. Rapid swelling or bruising that begins immediately after a skin injury often means there is a large amount of bleeding or that damage to deeper tissues is present. You may need to have a skin injury checked by your doctor if a lot of swelling or bruising occurred within 30 minutes of the injury. Puncture wounds caused by the injection of a substance under high pressure into the skin need immediate medical treatment.
