Meer’s Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Center provide the best Stroke physiotherapy services in Lahore, Pakistan. A stroke is a life-threatening condition when part of your brain doesn’t have enough blood flow. This most commonly happens because of a blocked artery or bleeding in your brain. Without a steady supply of blood, the brain cells in that area start to die from a lack of oxygen.
Types:
There are two main ways that strokes can happen. These types are the following:
1 Ischemic stroke
2 Hemorrhagic stroke
Ischemic stroke:
Ischemia is when cells don’t have enough blood to supply oxygen. This usually happens because something blocks blood vessels in your brain, cutting off blood flow. Ischemic strokes are the most common and account for about 80% of all strokes.
Hemorrhagic stroke:
Hemorrhagic strokes cause bleeding in or around your brain.
Causes:
Ischemic strokes usually happen because of blood clots. These can happen for various reasons, such as:
- Atherosclerosis.
- Clotting disorders.
- Atrial fibrillation (especially when it happens due to sleep apnea).
- Heart defects (atrial septal defect or ventricular septal defect).
- Microvascular ischemic disease (which can block smaller blood vessels in your brain).
- Hemorrhagic strokes can happen for several reasons also, including:
- High blood pressure, especially when you have it for a long time when it’s very high, or both.
- Brain aneurysms can sometimes lead to hemorrhagic strokes.
- Brain tumours (including cancer).
- Diseases that weaken or cause unusual changes in blood vessels in your brain, such as moyamoya disease.
Symptoms:
The symptoms of stroke can involve one or more of the following:
- One-sided weakness or paralysis.
- Aphasia (difficulty with or loss of speaking ability).
- Slurred or garbled speaking (dysarthria).
- Loss of muscle control on one side of your face.
- Sudden loss — partial or total — of one or more senses (vision, hearing, smell, taste and touch).
- Blurred or double vision (diplopia).
- Loss of coordination or clumsiness (ataxia).
- Dizziness or vertigo.
- Nausea and vomiting.
- Neck stiffness.
- Emotional instability and personality changes.
- Confusion or agitation.
