A Stroke usually happens when blood flow to the brain is blocked by a clot or when a blood vessel bursts, and common causes include high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking, heart disease, and lack of physical activity. Treatment depends on the type and must be started quickly in a hospital to restore blood flow or control bleeding, so recognising symptoms early (sudden weakness, speech difficulty, facial drooping, vision problems) and seeking emergency care is critical. To prevent stroke, it is important to control BP, sugar, and cholesterol with medicines if prescribed, eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly, avoid smoking and excess alcohol, and have regular check-ups. Following these steps can greatly reduce the risk of stroke and improve overall health.
