A stroke occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted or reduced, preventing brain tissue from receiving oxygen and nutrients. As a result, brain cells begin to die within minutes. Stroke is a medical emergency that can lead to paralysis, muscle weakness, speech difficulties, balance problems, and loss of independence. Early medical intervention and comprehensive rehabilitation play a crucial role in maximizing recovery and improving quality of life.
Stroke can occur due to various underlying conditions, including:
The most common type of stroke, caused by a blockage in a blood vessel supplying the brain.
Occurs when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures and causes bleeding.
Often called a “mini-stroke,” it is caused by a temporary blockage of blood flow to the brain and serves as an important warning sign.
