Did You Know there are three types of strokes that can occur. They are:

Ischemic stroke – a stroke caused by a blockage or clot in a blood vessel in your brain.

Hemorrhagic stroke – a stroke caused when an artery in the brain breaks open. The resulting interruption to blood flow causes damage to your brain.

Transient ischemic attack (TIA) – a stroke caused by a small clot that briefly blocks an artery. This is sometimes called a mini-stroke or a warning stroke.
