The brain is certainly one of the main body parts that are precious to human life.
It is like the epicenter
of the body and sends out signals that coordinate speech, muscle motor coordination and a host of
other physical and mental functions.
Any malfunctioning in the brain can be deadly for a person.
The
brain needs a constant supply of oxygen and nutrient-rich blood.
This task is made possible by the help
of blood vessels that carry blood to various parts of the brain.
There are instances, however, when a
blood clot or a block in the blood vessels inhibit this function and prevent blood from being carried to
various parts of the brain.
This can starve the neurons in the brain and can cease to function properly.
A
mini stroke occurs when there is a brief lapse in blood supply to a part of the brain.
This is also known as
transient ischemic attack or TIA.
TIA can last for a few minutes or hours.
This is, most often, considered
by doctors, as a warning sign of a major stroke.
