It is heredatary, and a lot of people get them but I'm not real comfortable saying they are common. Maybe 10 out of 100 may get one.

An aneurysm can occur in different parts of the body, but it is most commonly found in the brain (cerebral aneurysm) or the aorta (abdominal aortic aneurysm). Aneurysms in other parts of the body, such as the heart or peripheral arteries, are less common but can also occur.
A blow to the head can cause a brain aneurysm, but this cause is only 1% of all cases, so it's unlikely.

Warning signs of an aneurysm can include sudden severe headache, vision changes, confusion, and loss of consciousness. Nose bleeds are not typically a common symptom of an aneurysm, but if you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.
These are most common over the age of 50 (but can occur at any age).

Treatment for a behind the eye aneurysm, often located in the carotid-cavernous sinus region, typically involves surgical intervention or endovascular procedures. Common approaches include clipping the aneurysm to prevent rupture or using endovascular coiling to fill the aneurysm and reduce the risk of bleeding. The choice of treatment depends on the aneurysm's size, location, and the patient's overall health. Regular monitoring may also be recommended for smaller, asymptomatic aneurysms.
