Blood clot in brain results stroke in humans body. When the parts of our brain are not getting the blood, then that brain part of cells is damaged and which further leads to stroke. When blood does not reach all parts of blood, then the cell does not get enough oxygen further leading to glucose scarcity in the cells.

TYPES OF STROKE
1. Ischemic stroke
Ischemic stroke is a type of stroke mainly caused due to blocked arteries. In ischemic stroke, clots form locally inside the blood vessels which supply blood to the brain. This majorly happens due to the fatty deposits in an artery. Clotting passes into the bloodstream and is stuck in smaller arteries of the brain. Ischemic stroke is very common in people nowadays.
2. Hemorrhagic stroke
Ischemic stroke is a type of stroke mainly caused due to rupture of the artery. Rupture of the artery causes majorly due to high blood pressure or abnormal formation of blood vessels. Bleeding causes the contraction of blood vessels and reduces the blood flow. Hemorrhagic stroke symptoms are paralysis of face muscle, arms, and legs immobility.
REASONS FOR BLOOD CLOT IN BRAIN
1. SOLID PARTICLES IN BLOOD VESSELS
Accumulating solid particles in the blood vessels causes a block of damaged blood flow. Cholesterol increases the chance of blood clotting in the brain. People must be aware that high cholesterol affects severe damage to all body parts’ functions. Moreover, diabetes patients’ blood has more sugar or glucose content which also negatively impacts blood vessels and causes blockage and further clotting.
2. HEART BLOCK
The heart pumps the blood into all the body parts of humans. Any irregularity in heart function or heartbeat fluctuates causes clotting further leading to a blood clot in the brain. After that particular brain cell is unable to get the blood flow.
3. HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE
High blood pressure is the main reason for a blood clot in the brain. High blood pressure results in a high flow of blood into the blood vessels which causes adverse effects and damages to the blood cells.
4. SMOKING
Smoking causes less amount of oxygen in the blood cells and brain cells do not get enough blood for the metabolism. Cigarettes and such types of products contain nicotine; this nicotine enters the blood and results in clotting. Nowadays people’s daily routines are changing and as per WHO studies youngsters are more addicted to smoking due to their lifestyle stresses.
SYMPTOMS OF BLOOD CLOT IN BRAIN
1. Weakness in the face, arm, and leg
2. Dizziness
3. Vision loss
4. Balance loss
5. Understanding difficulties
6. Headache
Apart from these symptoms, if we are in a dilemma whether a person suffers from a stroke, immediately ask them to show their tongue straight, if they move their tongue sideways then we can understand that they are suffering from a stroke. Secondly, ask them to speak, if their words are not clear, we can understand the chance of stroke.
TREATMENT
Emergency medication
The most useful way when a blood clot in the brain is to consult a neurosurgeon immediately. If a clot occurs, brain cells are damaged within 4 hours. Thus consult the doctor as soon as possible. So emergency medication is the one and most important treatment if we understand that a person has a blood clot in the brain.
