Knowing the signs of an unruptured aneurysm may help you get medical attention before it bursts and causes more damage.
An aneurysm is a weak spot in one of your brain’s arteries . They tend to happen where arteries fork. Over time, flowing blood puts pressure on that spot and makes it give way and balloon out.
It’s a lot like a worn-out garden hose that bulges where it’s gotten thin. Most people who have an aneurysm don’t know it. But if it bursts, it can be life-threatening and cause brain damage.
