An aneurysm as the name applies mostly occurs when an artery’s wall paralyzes and causes an abnormally large bulge. This bulge can puncture and cause severe internal bleeding. Although an this virus can occur in any part of your body, they’re most common in the following below;

  • Aorta
  • Brain
  • Legs

What Causes an Aneurysm?

Although the major cause of this disease is unclear, specific circumstances adds to the condition. For instance, injured tissue in the arteries can play a vital role. The arteries can be wounded by blockages they include as fatty and junk deposits. These deposits can propel the heart to pump faster harder than in order to push blood through the fatty buildup. This process can injure the arteries as a result of the increased pressure.

Atherosclerotic Disease

  • Atherosclerotic disease (this hardens the narrow path to the artery) can also lead to an aneurysm. People with atherosclerotic disease have a form of brooch buildup in their arteries. This brooch is as a result of hard substance called ‘‘plaque’’ that damages and injures the arteries and blocks the free flow of blood.
  • High Blood Pressure
    High blood pressure may also cause an aneurysm. The force in which your blood carries as it travels through the blood vessels is measured by how much pressure it lays on your artery walls. of your blood as it travels through your blood vessels is measured by how much pressure it places on your artery walls. If peradventure the pressure grows above a normal rate, it may harden or weaken the blood vessels.

Who is at risk for an aneurysm?

Depending on some specific risk factors this disease mostly affects the males more than the females.Males are more likely to have aneurysms than females. All the same people who are older than 60 are also at a higher risk. Other risk may include:

  • Smoking
  • Pregnancy
  • A diet high in fats and cholesterol
  • Heart attack
  • Smoking
  • Obesity
  • Pregnancy, which may make increase your risk of having an aneurysm of the spleen.

Diagnosing aneurysm

Treating this disease usually reckons on the location and type of aneurysm. For instance, a weak area of a vessel in your abdomen and chest may require a type of surgery called an endovascular stent graft. This clearly invasive procedure may be selected over traditional open surgery because it includes reinforcing and repairing damaged blood vessels. The technique also reduces the chance of infection, scarring, and other similar related problems.

Other treatments may include medications that treat high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Certain types of beta-blockers might also be appointed to lower blood pressure. Lessening your blood pressure might keep your aneurysm from rupturing.
Preventing aneurysm

According to researchers, eating a healthy diet containing plenty of fruits, vegetables and whole grains may help avert an aneurysm from forming. Meat and poultry low in soggy cholesterol and fat are also good options for protein.

  • Constant daily exercise, especially running and jugging, can help in blood circulation and a stress-free flow of blood in the heart, arteries and other blood vessels.
  • If peradventure you have been an addict of smoking tobacco products, now is the best time to quit. Eliminating tobacco can decrease your risk for an aneurysm.
  • And lastly, you should always see your doctor for medical checkup.

This is really handy article, but please I would like to know how fatty and junks deposit blocks the arteries by wounding it.

The arteries can be wounded by blockages they include as fatty and junk deposits. These deposits can propel the heart to pump faster harder than in order to push blood through the fatty buildup. This process can injure the arteries as a result of the increased pressure.

Those fatty and junk foods we eat blocks the arteries this results to the heart pumping faster than before. The artery might get injured as a result of an increase in pressure.

Interesting to know.
Thanks for this article, have learnt from it.

Am glad you did bro, see you at the top!

You too man..

Constant daily exercise, especially running and jugging, can help in blood circulation and a stress-free flow of blood in the heart, arteries and other blood vessels.

For a moment i have actually been looking for a remedy to cure fat and junk food, truth be told i love junk food a lot lol. I think i have found what i have been searching for. God bless you'll for this article.
