When I was younger and doing the headstand regularly I noticed the same thing with the red dots on the skin, occasional broken bloodvessels in the eyes etc. It never caused any problems and I just took it as a side effect of ever longer headstand sessions.

As for the pressure in the head, of course that's normal especially in the beginning. You get blood rushing to the head in ways it hasn't before - but the pressure should decrease over time. If all of a sudden during regular and routing headstand practice it starts increasing for no appearent reason, I would also suspect high blood pressure. As with anything else in Yoga, stop before the point of pain or if it feels wrong in any way. And do check your blood pressure.
