Stroke is a medical condition that occurs when blood flow to a part of the brain is disrupted or reduced, causing brain cells to die. It can be caused by a clot blocking blood flow (ischemic stroke) or by a blood vessel rupturing and bleeding into the brain (hemorrhagic stroke). Symptoms of a stroke can include sudden weakness or numbness on one side of the body, difficulty speaking or understanding speech, vision problems, and severe headache. It is a medical emergency and requires immediate treatment to prevent permanent damage or death.
