Stroke - Hemorrhagic at Southeastern PA Jennersville Regional
A hemorrhagic stroke is a stroke that involves bleeding of the brain, which causes the brain to swell, either due to irritation from the blood or an increase of pressure. Hemorrhagic strokes can be caused by high blood pressure, which breaks down the artery walls until they burst, or is the result of a weak spot in the artery wall which stretches and eventually bursts. A buildup of amyloid protein is also associated with strokes. Symptoms include swallowing difficulties, vertigo, numbness, weakness, and speech difficulties. Only about 20% of strokes are hemorrhagic. CT scans are crucial in identifying whether or not a stroke has occurred.
