A stroke happens when blood flow to part of the brain is blocked or when a blood vessel in the brain bursts. Brain cells need a steady supply of blood, so when that flow stops, cells can be harmed. Stroke recovery is the process of healing and relearning after this event. Every stroke is different, and so is every recovery.
During a stroke, warning signs can include sudden weakness or numbness—often on one side of the body—trouble speaking or understanding, drooping of the face, confusion, or sudden trouble seeing or walking. A stroke is a medical emergency, and fast treatment can save brain tissue.
