Detailed explanation-1: -An ischemic stroke is when there’s some kind of blockage that keeps blood from reaching all areas of your brain. The areas without blood flow stop working and start to die. If blood flow doesn’t return quickly enough, an ischemic stroke will cause permanent brain damage or even death.
Detailed explanation-2: -Up to 85 percent of strokes are ischemic strokes, which usually are caused by a clot that blocks a blood vessel carrying blood to the brain. The blockage cuts off the brain’s blood supply, causing brain cells to stop receiving oxygen, which after a few hours usually causes brain tissue to die.
Detailed explanation-3: -A blood clot in the brain may cause weakness in your face, arms, or legs, speech and vision difficulties, headache, and dizziness. Many of these symptoms are the symptoms associated with other conditions, such as heart attacks and stroke. If you suspect you have a blood clot, see a doctor immediately.
Detailed explanation-4: -Ischaemic strokes can often be treated using injections of a medicine called alteplase, which dissolves blood clots and restores blood flow to the brain. This use of “clot-busting” medicine is known as thrombolysis.
