Effects and Treatment of Stroke: What You Must Do to Prevent Stroke

A stroke occurs when the blood flow to a portion of the brain is interrupted. Brain cells may be harmed or die in the absence of blood. Stroke may have both short- and long-term consequences, depending on which area of the brain is injured and how fast it is treated. Stroke survivors may have a variety of problems, including challenges with movement and communication, as well as changes in how they think and feel.
