so, that is because arteries have a more important job than capillaries do so they have more blood. also, they are more big whiles the capillaries can't almost be seen so it's not that serious.

Is inflated arteries serious?

It is actually pretty serious if you continue to let it grow. you should go to the doctor for a check upANSWER:Inflated arteries (as opposed to Blocked or Collapsed Arteries) are call [Forgot for a moment] but are extremely dangerous since the artery is pumping more and more blood to the same artery - building up pressure - and if it expands too much then it will burst or start bleeding out. This is extremely life threatening - if the artery is the one coming from the heart - since if they burst you will bleed to death in minutes.If it happens in a non-major artery it is not life threatening immediately, but should seek help asap.

Will the compression of CPR causes the leakage of the blood when a person's coronary artery is burst and experiences heart attack?

You would not know if a persons Coronary Artery has burst in the field. That is something that would require a surgeon (or more likely autopsy) to discover. Coronary Arteries very rarely burst, though they do become blocked. The most common place for vessels to burst is in the brain. If a person suffers a heart attack, perform CPR. Don't worry about the cause, nor should you worry about leaking blood from internal injuries.
