  Lumbar Disc Herniation-Symptoms, Causes, Treatment, Recovery and Exercises The vertebrae are the bony building blocks of the human spine. Between each of the parts of the vertebrae are the discs with ligaments situated around the spine and discs. The spinal has seven vertebrae within the neck (cervical vertebrae), 12 vertebrae within the mid-back (thoracic vertebrae), and five vertebrae within the low back (lumbar vertebrae). Within the mid-buttock, beneath the fifth vertebra, is that the sacrum, followed by the tailbone. The bony spine designed so that vertebrae “stacked” together can provide a movable support structure while also protecting the medulla spinals (nervous tissue that extends down the vertebral column from the brain) from injury. Each vertebra features a spinous process, a bony prominence behind the medulla spinals that shields the cord’s nervous tissue. The vertebrae even have a robust body ahead of the medulla spinals to supply a platform suitable for weight-bearing.

  A bulge or ballooning in a blood vessel in the brain is called a  brain aneur ysm .   A brain aneurysm occurs when a weak spot in the brain’s arterial wall bulges and fills with blood, they develop as a result of the thinning of artery walls and are commonly seen at the branches of the arteries which are the weakest points of the vessels. Although aneurysms can appear anywhere within the brain, they are most commonly found in arteries at the base of the brain. A brain aneurysm is a potentially life-threatening condition that may affect an individual at any age. If a brain aneurysm ruptures, it’s an emergency situation that may lead to a stroke, brain damage, and even death if not treated immediately. A ruptured which causes bleeding inside the brain is called hemorrhagic stroke, and the one occurring in the space between the brain and the thin tissues covering the brain is called a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Most brain aneurysms are often detected during tests for other conditions and
