Stroke
A stroke happens when an artery supplying blood and oxygen to the brain becomes blocked or develops a bleed. Because of this, there is a lack of oxygen delivery to the brain. The tissue without oxygen begins to die causing neurologic, and eventual multi-organ, damage. Common signs and symptoms are persistent headache, numbness and weakness of half the face and half of the body.
