What are symptoms of an intracranial aneurysm rupture?

0

The symptoms of an aneurysm rupture can include: • Sudden and severe pain, an unusual pulsing sensation, pain or a lump anywhere in your body where blood vessels are located. • A severe headache, like none you’ve ever had before, accompanied by radiating neck pain. Many patients describe this as “the worst headache of my life.” What are the long-term consequences of aneurysm rupture? An aneurysm’s rupture causes blood to seep into the skull. The bleeding increases pressure in the skull. That pressure can halt the flow of blood supply to the brain, causing severe damage. Also, blood around the brain is extremely toxic and the brain reacts badly to it. Since the effects of a severe bleed can become worse in the days following the rupture, a patient is typically observed in the intensive care unit for one or two weeks.
