What is a Stroke?

A stroke may be caused by a blocked artery (ischemic stroke) or the leaking or bursting of a blood vessel (hemorrhagic stroke). Some people may experience only a temporary disruption of blood flow to the brain (transient ischemic attack, or TIA) that doesn’t cause permanent damage (Source: Mayo Clinic) Others, who have a stroke may experience temporary or permanent disabilities.

There are many types of strokes including ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic and transient ischemic attack (TIA). They are all different and their treatment options vary.
