Cerebral infarction occurs due to lack of blood supply to the brain causing necrosis of a part of the brain. The disease can have mild symptoms such as numbness in the hands and feet to severe symptoms such as paralysis of the hands, feet, half of the body, loss of speech, etc.

Stroke is common in people with diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes, lipid disorders, obesity. The disease occurs due to atherosclerosis, causing the lumen of the blood vessels to narrow, easily forming blood clots causing blockage.

Cerebral infarction can take away life if not recognized and treated promptly. When having a stroke, take the patient to a hospital that can diagnose and treat strokes in order to intervene promptly to save the patient's life.
