Cerebrovascular disease (stroke) occurs when a part of the brain does not receive enough blood. There are two main types of this condition:

1. Ischemic Stroke: This occurs when a blood vessel is blocked, usually by a blood clot.
2. Hemorrhagic Stroke: This occurs when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures, leading to bleeding.

Symptoms of cerebrovascular disease may include:

• Severe headache of unknown origin.
• Weakness or numbness on one side of the body, often in the face, arm, or leg.
• Difficulty speaking or understanding speech.
• Visual disturbances in one or both eyes.
• Loss of balance or coordination.

Risk factors for cerebrovascular disease include:

• High blood pressure.
• Diabetes.
• Smoking.
• High cholesterol.
• Family history of cerebrovascular disease.

Treatment for cerebrovascular disease depends on the type of stroke. For ischemic stroke, clot-dissolving medications may be used. In the case of hemorrhagic stroke, surgery may be necessary to repair the blood vessel.
