Symptoms don't fit?: The artery idea leading to your symptoms do not match. So, I would say you are not in any danger. A vessel can expand and ruptured but that would be a sudden or worsening set of symptoms. Ringing and allergies can be caused by dozens of issues. I would pay a visit to your local doctor to get some answers. Gather a list of all your concerns so you talk them over with the provider.
