Can an o****m cause a bloodshot eye?

Question

I just had a much larger than normal o****m. Afterwords I noticed that my left eye is really blood shot. I don't think I've ever seen my eye so blood shot in my life. It looks red instead of white. Is there a connection? Did my blood pressure shoot up high enough during o****m to cause this?

Answer 1

BLOOD PRESSURE PROBLEM...See a doctor!  Also, too much straining can cause rupture of vessels.  Be careful and see a doctor.

EDIT:

o****m can cause the blood pressure to rise...afterword's the pressure will return to normal.  Your BP does not stay the same all of the time; it will rise and fall over the day.  

You may have ruptured some small vessels in your eye due to the tension caused by o****m. OR your BP went very high during the o****m phase. OR the blood shot eyes may be totally unrelated.  It's worth a mention to your doctor.

Answer 2

i have normal blood pressure and had one. it could be from tensing up real tight. i had bursted a blood vessel in one of my eyes during the wake for my diseased grandmother. When i tried to hold back from crying at the final viewing, it was a strong emotional outburst that i tried to restrict by tensing up my body and face real tight. The next morning i looked in the mirror and had a splotch of blood in the white of my eye. I think it took a good week or longer before it fully dissolved and went away. probably best check with your doctor though just to be safe, especially since you mentioned you have a blood pressure problem.

Answer 3

i would agree that its blood pressure, may be its possible.

Answer 4

sounds more connected to a blood pressure problem, possibly due to the sensation of the o****m you "shot up"

see a doctor if it continues
