September is National Brain Aneurysm Awareness Month! ?? Brain aneurysm, also called a cerebral aneurysm, is a bulge in a weak area of an artery in or around your brain. Brain aneurysms can affect anyone and at any age. Up to 6% of people in the U.S. have an aneurysm in their brain that isn’t bleeding (an unruptured aneurysm). Ruptured brain aneurysms are less common. When it ruptures, blood spills (hemorrhages) into surrounding brain tissue. The blood can put excess pressure on your brain tissue and make your brain swell and can be life threatening. First symptom is usually a very severe headache!
