How does a stroke causes brain damage?
A stroke is a injury within the brain. There are two basic types; ischemic and hemorrhagic. In an ischemic stroke, a blockage in a blood vessel occurs within the brain, cutting off the flow of blood carrying oxygen and sugars to the brain tissue. In a hemorrhagic stroke, a blood vessel has burst within the brain, flooding an area of brain tissue. Depending on the area affected within the brain, there could be many different affects. Stroke victims frequently experience physical weakness in one or more extremity, or difficulty speaking or seeing.
What are the different types of Stroke?
There are two major kinds of stroke, ischemic and hemorrhagic. In an ischemic stroke a blood vessel becomes blocked, usually by a blood clot and a portion of the brain becomes deprived of oxygen and will stop functioning. A hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain burst and spills blood into the brain. When this happens, a portion of the brain becomes deprived of oxygen and will stop functioning.
