A stroke might be caused by a blocked artery (ischemic stroke) or the spilling or blasting of a blood vessel (hemorrhagic stroke).

Around 80 percent of strokes are ischemic strokes. Ischemic strokes happen when the courses to your brain wind up limited or blocked, causing extremely lessened blood flow (ischemia).
