What Are the Treatments for Brain Aneurysms?
A brain aneurysm is a bulge that develops in an artery of the brain. Small aneurysms may not produce symptoms until they grow larger, rupture or leak blood. An aneurysm that presses against nerves in the brain may cause pain behind the eye, numbness on one side of the body, double vision and a drooping eyelid. When an aneurysm ruptures, it can cause a sudden, severe headache, vomiting and loss of consciousness.
