A âcerebralâ or âbrain aneurysmâ is a disorder in which there is a weakness in the wall of blood vessel like cerebral artery or vein within the brain network. There is ballooning or dilation of the blood vessel.
A common location of cerebral aneurysms is on the arteries at the base of the brain, known as the âCircle of Willisâ. It often looks like a berry hanging on a stem.
These aneurysm formations can be benefited by homoeopathic medicines. Recurrence and sequelae of the aneurysms can be withheld by homoeopathic medicines.
