What is a stroke?

Stroke is caused or occurred when the blood supply to your brain is interrupted or reduced. When this happens, your brain is deprived of oxygen and nutrients, which cause your brain cells to die. The cause of stroke may be correlated to a blocked artery (ischemic stroke) or the leaking or busting of a blood vessel (hemorrhagic stroke.)
