Can a aaa cause stomach aches?
10 doctors weighed in across 4 answers
Pain more than Ache: Aaas are typically silent / asymptomatic while they are growing. Once they start to rupture people do experience abdominal / back pain. If you are >65 years of age, male, and have ever smoked, it is recommended that you be screened with an ultrasound for an aaa. If you are a women, >65 yrs of age, have a family history and have ever smoked you should also be screened.

AAA: Yes as it progresses and chokes off other arteries. This could be an emergency.

Yes: This can be very serious and a sign that the aneurysm may be active and in danger of rupture.
