Stroke

What is more dangerous than stopping the blood supply to the brain? This is what is happening here! This picture give us the condition we call “Stroke”. - This kind of stroke occurs due to clot formation in a process called arterial thrombosis. Particularly, in this picture shown here, there is a blood clot obstructing the basilar artery. - Arterial thrombosis is a blood clot that develops in an artery. It's dangerous as it can obstruct or stop the flow of blood to major organs, such as the heart or brain. If a blood clot blocks the arteries leading to part of the heart muscle, it will cause a heart attack. If it blocks an artery in the brain, it will cause a stroke. - How do you prevent yourself from having it? It's vital that you live a healthy lifestyle. Stopping smoking (if you smoke), doing some physical activity, reducing the amount of salt and saturated fat that you eat. - Mention your friends to see this Follow us @medshots for more

What happened when a hospitalised stroke pt come to home? Haw many days needed for recovery?

Recovery is totally based on how severe the stroke was: location, time until treatment and repercussion of brain, previous health of individual, etc. Some patients can leave the hospital with little residual deficit, and some are forever comatose. So recovery varies.
