@aorticdissectct.bsky.socialToday is Aortic Dissection Awareness Day. Know the signs. Sudden, severe chest, back or abdominal pain is a typical symptom of aortic dissection. But some cases are painless or present in unexpected ways. Sometimes the only signs are neurological, such as sudden weakness or collapse.
