Stroke
A stroke occurs when blood flow to part of the brain is interrupted, causing brain cells to die. This can result from a blocked artery (ischemic stroke) or leaking blood vessel (haemorrhagic stroke). Symptoms include sudden weakness, speech difficulties, and vision problems. Immediate medical attention is crucial to minimise damage.
