Summary Introduction

To write:

The conditions and symptoms of stroke.

Introduction:

A stroke is also known as a “brain attack”. It can occur to any person at any time. It takes place when blood flow to some area of the brain is cut off. Due to this, the brain cells become deprived of oxygen and start to die. When brain cells become dead, then abilities regulated by that brain area are also lost.
