[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. It is possible that after an aneurysm procedure, you might continue to experience slight pain and discomfort. However, having same symptoms or severe pain requires you to get an opinion from the operating surgeon. It is important to know complete details of aneurysm treatment and if there was any placement of stent in the aneurysm. Pre-existing conditions involving the spine and intervertebral discs should also be considered when looking for a cause leading to severe pain. The site of aneurysm is also important to be evaluated for any significant changes after the procedure. Though rare in occurrence, aneurysms might continue to grow even after a procedure has been done. Please call for your surgeons' attention during the next visit.
