What is a stroke?

Damage to the brain when its blood supply is blocked or a blood vessel bursts. Sudden drooping of the face, weakness of an arm or leg, or slurred speech is an emergency: every minute counts.

In an emergency, call +91 85850 35846. Our emergency department is open day and night.

These are general explanations, not medical advice. Your doctor’s advice about your own health comes first.
