An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a bulge or weakening of the wall of the artery in the abdomen called the abdominal aorta (the largest artery in the body that carries blood from the heart to the lower body). An AAA can rupture without treatment, which is a medical emergency where you can bleed out internally.

⚠️ Potential Symptoms
- Pulsating sensation in the abdomen
- Sudden, severe pain in your lower back or abdomen
- Discolored toes or foot pain from embolization
- In the case of rupture, it is a medical emergency

🛠️ Treatment Options
- Watchful waiting for aneurysms less than 5 centimeters with regular monitoring
- Open surgical repair for large/symptomatic AAA
- Endovascular stent grafting (this involves fewer complications, is less invasive, and has a shorter recovery than open surgery).

Carotid artery disease, a condition that narrows the arteries supplying blood to the brain, is a significant risk factor for stroke.

The CDC reports that 80% of strokes are preventable, especially when addressing modifiable risks like this one. Left untreated, it can lead to life-altering consequences, but early detection makes a critical difference.

A vascular screening can identify problems before symptoms appear, giving you a chance to take proactive steps toward protecting your brain and overall vascular health.
