STROKE

A stroke is a serious medical emergency that occurs when the blood supply to the brain is interrupted or reduced, preventing brain tissue from receiving oxygen and nutrients. Without timely treatment, a stroke can lead to permanent brain damage, disability, or even death. At Imperia Neurosciences and Multispeciality Hospital, Lucknow, we provide advanced and timely stroke care to improve survival rates and long-term recovery.

what is stroke?

A stroke happens when a blood vessel supplying the brain becomes blocked or ruptures. Since brain cells begin to die within minutes of oxygen deprivation, early recognition and immediate medical attention are critical in minimizing damage and improving outcomes.

Types of Stroke

There are three main types of stroke:

1. Ischemic Stroke

The most common type, caused by a blood clot blocking an artery supplying the brain.

2. Hemorrhagic Stroke

Occurs when a weakened blood vessel ruptures and bleeds into or around the brain.

3. Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)

Often called a “mini-stroke,” TIA causes temporary symptoms but serves as a serious warning sign of a future stroke.

Common Causes and Risk Factors

Stroke risk increases due to several medical and lifestyle factors, including:

  • High blood pressure

  • Diabetes

  • High cholesterol

  • Smoking and alcohol consumption

  • Obesity and lack of physical activity

  • Heart disease

  • Stress and unhealthy diet

Managing these risk factors can significantly reduce the chances of stroke.

Symptoms of Stroke (Warning Signs)

Recognizing stroke symptoms early can save lives. Common signs include:

  • Sudden weakness or numbness in the face, arm, or leg (especially on one side)

  • Difficulty speaking or understanding speech

  • Sudden vision problems

  • Loss of balance or coordination

  • Severe headache with no known cause

FAST Rule:
Face drooping | Arm weakness | Speech difficulty | Time to seek emergency care

BRAIN TUMOR

A brain tumor is a serious neurological condition caused by the abnormal growth of cells in or around the brain. Brain tumors can affect vital functions such as memory, speech, movement, and vision, making early diagnosis and specialized medical care essential. At Imperia Neurosciences and Multispeciality Hospital, Lucknow, we provide advanced diagnostic and treatment services for brain tumors with a focus on safety, precision, and long-term outcomes.

What Is a Brain Tumor?

A brain tumor occurs when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably within the brain or surrounding tissues. These tumors can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Depending on their size and location, brain tumors can put pressure on sensitive brain structures and interfere with normal neurological functions.

Types of Brain Tumors

Brain tumors are broadly classified into:

1. Primary Brain Tumors

These originate within the brain itself, such as gliomas, meningiomas, and pituitary tumors.

2. Secondary (Metastatic) Brain Tumors

These develop when cancer spreads to the brain from other parts of the body, such as the lungs or breast.

Causes and Risk Factors

The exact cause of brain tumors is often unknown, but certain factors may increase risk, including:

  • Genetic conditions

  • Exposure to radiation

  • Family history of brain tumors

  • Weakened immune system

Early medical evaluation is crucial if symptoms appear or worsen over time.

Common Symptoms of Brain Tumor

Symptoms vary depending on the tumor’s size, type, and location. Common warning signs include:

  • Persistent or severe headaches

  • Seizures

  • Vision or hearing problems

  • Difficulty in speech or memory

  • Weakness or numbness in arms or legs

  • Loss of balance or coordination

  • Personality or behavioral changes

Any persistent neurological symptom should not be ignored.

Diagnosis of Brain Tumor

At Imperia Neurosciences and Multispeciality Hospital, Lucknow, accurate diagnosis is achieved through advanced investigations such as:

  • MRI and CT scans

  • Neurological examinations

  • Biopsy when required

  • Blood tests and imaging studies

Early and precise diagnosis helps determine the most effective treatment approach.
