how do you identify a headache that is associated with an annurism and what are the symptoms of an annurism?

Hi, brain aneurysms are dilatations of brain vessels usually discovered when they rupture, causing bleeding into the brain or subarachnoid space. Subarachnoid hemorrhage from a ruptured brain aneurysm can lead to a hemorrhagic stroke.

The symptoms are peripheral vision deficits, nausea, vomiting, speech complications ,perceptual problems,sudden changes in behavior ,loss of balance and coordination, decreased concentration etc

Investigations like MRI and cerebral angiography are helpful in diagnosis. Relax, all headaches are not related with aneurysm!
