When brain cells are cut off from their supply of blood, the part of the body that they are responsible for controlling in the body becomes inoperable. Whenever a portion of the brain is deprived of its blood supply. A stroke is the common name for this type of medical emergency. It is possible for this blood supply loss to be either ischemic (described by a lack of blood flow) or hemorrhagic.

When someone is having a stroke, the blood supply to their brain is suddenly cut off for some unknown cause. If you want to prevent suffering brain damage, becoming unable to care for yourself, or even dying, you need to obtain treatment as soon as you possibly can.
