• #1 Aneurysm: Signs and Symptoms

  https://www.health.com/aneurysm-symptoms-7570568

  An aneurysm is an abnormal bulging in the wall of an artery or vein that fills with blood. Aneurysms can happen in any artery or vein throughout the body, including the brain, heart, intestines, abdomen, and occur when part of the vessel wall is thinned or weakened. Most small aneurysms dont cause any symptoms until they are large, start leaking blood, or ruptures. […] Symptoms depend on where it occurs in the body and how large the aneurysm is. Some common symptoms include sudden headache, pain in the abdomen, neck or chest, blurry vision, skin discoloration, among many others. […] Aneurysm symptoms are based on location and whether the aneurysm is large or has ruptured. Common symptoms you can experience during a aneurysm include: Sudden headache, Abdomen or back pain, Discoloration of the lower extremities, Dizziness, Blurry vision, Confusion.

  When a brain aneurysm leaks a small amount of blood it’s called a sentinel bleed. You may experience warning headaches (called sentinel headaches) from a tiny aneurysm leak days or weeks before a significant rupture. […] Most unruptured (intact) brain aneurysms don’t cause symptoms. If they become large enough, the bulge in your artery can put pressure on nearby nerves or brain tissue, causing headaches, vision changes, enlarged (dilated) pupil, numbness or tingling on your head or face, pain above and behind your eye, seizures. […] The factors that contribute to the development of a brain aneurysm can also cause it to rupture (burst) and bleed. Researchers think high blood pressure is the most common cause of a rupture. Higher blood pressure makes blood push harder against blood vessel walls.

• #6 Brain Aneurysm: Symptoms, Causes, Risk Factors | Brigham and Women’s Hospital

  https://www.brighamandwomens.org/neurosurgery/brain-aneurysm

  A brain aneurysm is a bulging, weakened area in a blood vessel in the brain. This weakness in the artery wall may eventually cause the cerebral aneurysm to rupture. A ruptured aneurysm leads to bleeding in the brain, which is a serious condition called subarachnoid hemorrhage. Aneurysms are believed to form over time as a result of blood flow over a weak spot. Many people live with small brain aneurysms that go unnoticed. […] The symptoms of a brain aneurysm can vary based on the type. The most common symptom is headaches but may also include a range of other signs of a brain aneurysm, such as vision changes, numbness of the head, pain above or behind the eyes, and neck pain. […] A small, unruptured aneurysm may produce no symptoms at all. Even with a larger aneurysm, symptoms may not appear until the aneurysm ruptures.

  A brain aneurysm can cause dramatic symptoms if it ruptures (bursts), and mild symptoms or no symptoms at all if it doesn’t rupture. […] Brain aneurysms can grow slowly or rapidly, or may remain unchanged throughout your life. A brain aneurysm can rupture regardless of size or growth rate, although larger aneurysms are more likely to rupture than smaller ones. […] Most of the time, unruptured brain aneurysms do not cause any symptoms. When they do cause symptoms, it’s often because of the pressure the aneurysm exerts on a nearby nerve or blood vessel in the brain. The effects are usually subtle and may occur intermittently, but they can be constant or progressively worsen. […] Effects that can occur due to an unruptured brain aneurysm include: Peripheral vision loss, Double vision, A droopy eyelid on one side, Changes in the size of one pupil, Headaches, Numbness or weakness on one side of the face or body, Seizures.

  A thoracic aortic aneurysm is a weakened area in the upper part of the body’s main artery, called the aorta. A thoracic aortic aneurysm is a weakened area in the body’s main artery in the chest. When the aortic wall is weak, the artery may get wider. When the artery gets very wide, it’s called an aneurysm. Thoracic aortic aneurysms often grow slowly. There are usually no symptoms. That makes them hard to find. Many start small and stay small. Others get bigger over time. How quickly a thoracic aortic aneurysm may grow is hard to predict. As a thoracic aortic aneurysm grows, symptoms may include: Back pain. Cough. Weak, scratchy voice. Shortness of breath. Tenderness or pain in the chest. Symptoms that a thoracic aortic aneurysm has ruptured or caused a tear called an aortic dissection include: Sharp, sudden pain in the upper back that spreads down the body. Pain in the chest, jaw, neck or arms. Trouble breathing. Low blood pressure. Loss of consciousness. Shortness of breath. Trouble swallowing.
