Aneurysm is an extremely dangerous health condition where the walls of veins and arteries bulge. The greatest danger of this disease lies in the fact that it almost always develops silently, often without causing any discomfort to the patient.
Aneurysm can only be detected in its early stages through X-ray examination and ultrasound. Visual inspection, unfortunately, reveals nothing. In the later stages of aneurysm development, it is recognized by symptoms, as well as often as a result of traditional superficial examination. After the diagnosis is confirmed, appropriate measures should be taken immediately, as the final stage of the disease’s progression is the rupture of blood vessels (arteries, veins), intense bleeding, and a fatal outcome.
There are four main types of aneurysms: aortic aneurysm, heart aneurysm, cerebral vascular aneurysm, and peripheral vascular aneurysm. The causes of aneurysms are invariably related to the type of disease. These can include pathological deviations, traumas, infections, smoking, and complications from previously experienced illnesses.
Symptoms of an Aneurysm
First and foremost, it is necessary to know that aneurysm is a disease not “tied” to specific age groups of people. It can develop in a child as well as in an elderly person. Recognizing an aneurysm in an infant is quite problematic. A child can live with it for years without feeling any limitations. On the hands and feet, an aneurysm is recognized by excessive bulging veins with characteristic “knots”. These knots are clots, and the longer the disease progresses, the more pronounced they become.
Additionally, an aneurysm manifests itself with regular headaches, dilated pupils, weakness, and numbness.
Treatment of Aneurysm with Folk Remedies
Infusion of comfrey. Recipe: infuse two tablespoons of comfrey herb with a glass of boiling water, let it steep, and strain. Take 4-5 times a day, one tablespoon each time.
Hawthorn infusion. When it comes to treating aortic aneurysm with folk remedies, hawthorn infusion becomes one of the simplest and most effective options. For its preparation, you will need: four tablespoons of dried and crushed hawthorn berries, and three cups of boiling water. Preparation: infuse hawthorn with boiling water and let it steep. Take one glass of the infusion three times a day before meals.
