What Is Cerebrovascular Accident?
2. Hemorrhagic Stroke
One type of stroke is known as a hemorrhagic stroke. This happens when a blood vessel ruptures, allowing blood to leak out, and this means the blood will not make its way to the brain. Such a rupture will mean that the brain will not be able to function as it should be able to.
This can happen in the membrane that surrounds the brain, or it can happen in blood vessels in the brain itself. When blood leaks into the brain, the pressure within the brain will increase, and this can permanently damage brain cells. It can take a long time for survivors to recover, and many will have lost some faculties permanently.
