What Is a Brain Aneurysm?
7. Ruptured Aneurysm Symptoms
When an aneurysm does rupture, the main symptom will be a headache that is both sudden and very severe. The patient may also develop a stiff neck, and they may also develop nausea and begin vomiting. They can also become sensitive to light and they may also have double or blurred vision.
A sudden, severe headache is the key symptom of a ruptured aneurysm. The headache will be severe enough that the patient will likely know that something is very wrong. The patient may also become very confused and they may also experience seizures. A ruptured aneurysm may also cause the patient to fall unconscious, and it will also be fatal in some cases.
