A stroke occurs when blood supply to the brain is interrupted, either due to a blockage (ischemic stroke) or bleeding (hemorrhagic stroke). It is one of the leading causes of disability and death worldwide. While strokes can happen suddenly, research suggests that certain warning signs and risk factors may appear weeks before an event. Recognizing them early could save lives
