Aneurysm

An aneurysm typically cannot be reabsorbed or dissolved by the body. Once formed, it usually requires medical intervention, such as monitoring, surgical repair, or endovascular treatment, depending on its size and location. In some rare cases, small, asymptomatic aneurysms may stabilize or show minimal change over time, but they do not truly reabsorb. Regular medical follow-up is essential to manage the condition.

Yes, aneurysms can recur. After an initial aneurysm is treated, there is a risk of new aneurysms developing in other locations or even the same site. Factors such as underlying health conditions, genetic predispositions, and lifestyle choices can contribute to this risk. Regular monitoring and management by healthcare professionals are essential to reduce the likelihood of recurrence.

In a manner of speaking, ug is equivalent to mcg. The "u" in "ug" is actually a Greek letter mu, which can be mistaken for the letter u. For this reason, writing out mcg is preferable.

An aneurysm is a weak spot in a blood vessel. They are hereditary, and the causes are unknown. They are not caused by screaming, although anything that caused a sudden blood pressure spike could trigger a rupture if it was about to happen anyway.

sacculated aneurysm or a saclike bulging on one side of an artery. Syn: ampullary aneurysm.

my white blood cells count is 41 L. I had a CBC and this was showing like abnormal. I had a pain in my finger joints and now I'm starting to have like tingling in my toes and some times in my muscles. Having a white blood cells count lower is the cause of the pain I have.

Aortic Aneurysms can be very serious. I would suggested you continue to see your doctor, regardless on whether you find a homoeopathic treatment. This is a physical deformity of the artery, and I can't imagine any home remedies to fix it. Don't get me wrong, I am the first one to refuse medication. But you wouldn't treat a broken arm (a physical deformity) at home.

The top two chambers of the heart are called the atria. Between these two chambers is a wall called the septum. When a baby is born this is the last part of the heart to form and can have a small hole in it for a while. You may have heard, "the baby has a hole in its heart." This usually heals up over time.
In the case of atrial septum aneurysm the blood flow out of the heart is a little weaker but can be dealt with. The part for concern is if there begins to be pooling in the atrium. Any blood throughout the body that slows down will become thicker and possible have clots.
The thing you do for this is take a blood thinner. Some doctors have their patients take low-dose aspirin others, especially if you've had a stroke before, take coumadin.
With proper supervision of a doctor I've heard that it doesn't shorten life if you keep up with the thinner blood.

Hematoma is blood pooled outside the blood vessel, aneurysm is a bulging of a blood vessel.

There are two ways, you can either get it treated to prevent rupturing, or have an emergency treatment where an aneurysm is repaired after it is ruptured. Preventative treatment is more preferred.

Most Brain aneurysms are usually without symptoms. The condition is diagnosed during tests. An unruptured brain aneurysm will cause general symptoms like headaches, blurred vision, neck pain and changes in speak simply due to the aneurysm pressing against certain parts of the brain. A ruptured aneurysm however, will cause very sudden symptoms like loss of consciousness, intense headache, etc. In this case, the patient should seek emergency medical assistance.

Most cases of ventricular aneurysm are treated by close medical follow-up and limiting patient activity.

It depends on where the aneurysm is located. The aneurysm is a bulge in an arteriole blood vessel and will not cause damage itself unless it bursts.

Hi there,

I cannot answer the above question but I can provide hope for people and families who may have had a loved one suffer from this.

My father collapsed without warning nearly one year ago and was rushed to Hospital. After an xray it was discovered he had an abdominal aortic aneurysm and had to be operated on immediately if there was any chance of him surviving. We were of course shell shocked. Dad had been up and about and up a ladder only that morning. He was, however, 67 and had smoked most of his life. He was rushed into surgery lasting three hours. The prospects did not look good and we were told to expect the worst.

However, the surgery was sucessful but dad was in Intensive care for nearly 4 weeks with no sign of movement. One Saturday afternoon we visited him and just like that he gained consciousness. It took another few weeks for him to be discharged and about another 8 months for him to get back to normal. By that I mean coming to terms with the emotional aspects of what had happened and waterworks which seemed to be a bit of a problem for a while!. There was no long term speech damage or brain damage.

What Im trying to say is that don,t ever give up hope if you have a loved on in this situation. Some people do make it through.
