When the cerebellar are oversized, the tonsils extend down into the spinal cord canal from a small opening formed in the base of the skull.

Another symptoms is some times you don't feel such kind of symptoms, if you are diagnosed to it immediately medical check up should be done as recommended by doctor. When the cerebellar is elongated it is been forced to cut off the cerebro spinal fluid of the brain. The part affected in the brain due to chiari malformation is lower brainstem and cerebellum.

Another brain problem other than mentioned above is Subarachnoid hemorrhage. In this problem the person gets sudden severe headache. When it is diagnosed, the rupture of aneurysms looks like a balloon which touches the arteries from out, it is located near the backside of the brain on the base. Those who diagnosed subarachnoid hemorrhages their brain involve in bleeding between the space in brain and other membrane which are known as meninges.
