HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern as you said it is ruptured vessel but this may not be the thing in actual in fact you should have told smoothing about the complain that you have for which you are thinking that this is rupture of vessel if want to clear the doubt then in my opinion the clinical examination is must and better to see the ER, take care and have a nice day.
