first, to answer this question one must understand what a stroke is. A stroke isa sudden atteck of weakness affecting one side of the body. It is the consequence interruption to blood flow to the brain and this can be due to so many conditions like trauma, thrombus or infection. Knowing that astroke affects the brain and the brain being the power house of the body means a lot. The brain contains two hemispheres the left and right and in must people the left is the dominant sphere. The left sphere powers the right side of the body and the right sphere powers the left side of the body(rigth handed people most times have left has dominant and vice versa). The brain can only suvive 5minute without oxygen suppy therefore any disease or tauma that can interrupt blood supply to the brain will cause damage to it which will ead to weakness or paralysis of the contralateral side depending on how severe the damage is. Most times the damage done on the dominant side affects the ipslateral side of the body.

∙ 10y agoThis would be because the portion of the brain that controls motor function of the right side of the body is separate from the portion of the brain that controls motor function of the right side of the face. There are separate systems of nerves to provide control of the body than of the face, and they arise from different areas of the brain.
