A member asked:

I have a moderate concussion and had the worst rage fits all weekend. will this anger cause permanent brain damage or cause aneurysms to form??

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely : Hi, it is unlikely that episodes of anger by itself will cause a significant increase in blood pressure to cause aneurysms to form or brain damage, however if you have high blood pressure normally this can be treated to reduce your risk.
