Brain stroke treatment focuses on restoring blood flow to the brain or controlling bleeding, depending on the type of stroke. It is considered a medical emergency and is most effective when started as early as possible after symptoms appear. Diagnosis is typically confirmed through imaging tests such as CT scan, MRI, or cerebral angiography, which help doctors identify whether the stroke is ischemic (caused by a clot) or haemorrhagic (caused by bleeding).

For ischemic strokes, treatment may include clot-dissolving medications or minimally invasive procedures to remove the blockage and restore circulation. In certain cases, brain stroke surgery may be advised to prevent further damage. For haemorrhagic strokes, treatment focuses on controlling bleeding, reducing pressure on the brain, and repairing affected blood vessels when required.

Based on scan findings and overall health, a stroke specialist neurologist will recommend the most appropriate approach to improve recovery, reduce complications, and protect long-term brain function.
