What Is Cerebral Infarction?
2. Ischemic Stroke
There are two main types of stroke. One of these is a hemorrhagic stroke, which means that the blood vessels in the blood have burst. Burst blood vessels will mean that blood is leaking out into the brain. With nowhere for the blood to go the pressure inside the brain will increase, potentially causing damage to the brain’s cells.
The other type is an ischemic stroke and, as mentioned, this type is responsible for cerebral infractions. It means that the flow of blood to the brain through an artery has somehow become blocked. There are several potential reasons for this happening.
