A stroke occurs when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures and bleeds, or when there’s a blockage in the blood supply to the brain. The rupture or blockage prevents blood and oxygen from reaching the brain’s tissues.
Symptoms of Stroke
What causes a stroke?
Strokes sometimes also called brain attacks to occur suddenly and may result in loss of blood flow to the brain or bleeding into the brain that causes cells to die.
Are there different types of stroke?
There are two major kinds of stroke - an ischemic stroke is one that is caused by an artery or blood vessel that is blocked, another being the hemorrhagic strokes that occur when a blood vessel or artery bursts and leaks into the brain.
Am I at risk for a stroke?
While hereditary factors play a role in the risk of stroke, there are many things you can do to help reduce your risk. Abstaining from smoking, maintaining weight, regulating diabetes, and high blood pressure all can greatly help decrease the risk of a stroke.
Do victims of a stroke ever return to normal after suffering a stroke?
The extent of recovery varies in the case of a stroke patient as stroke kills brain cells. The extent of the brain damage and the size of the stroke are directly related to the extent of the impairments.
