  1. the amount of danger depends upon the area of the bleeding in the brain and the amount of blood that leaked in

    for example, a miniscule amount of blood leaked into the brainstem may cause transient, little or no apparent damage,

    whereas a small to moderate bleed in this area will result in disabilities and even death is a possibility.

    the brainstem is probably the worst area in the brain to have a haemorrhage as it houses most of the cranial nerves essential for many body functions eg hearing, facial expression, swallowing etc as well as centre for vital functions such as temperature control etc

    other areas of the brain have only one function and sometimes another part of the brain can compensate for a simple loss

    one person can have more than one brain haemorrhage


  2. Brain Hemorrhage is a kind of severe stroke that can kill a patient or may cost the patient paralysis.

    Brain Hemorrhage is a condition caused due to a sudden stroke to a person after blood leaks out from the blood vessels in the brain. This situation occurs due to the break in the wall of blood vessel, the blood spills out of the blood vessel and enters the area where vital tissues and cells of brain reside, killing those tissues and cells; this causes the patient to become seriously ill and needs immediate medication/treatment.

    People having condition of brain vessels with a heavy bulge wherein the walls of the vessel are under extra pressure, those who inherit weak blood vessels (and weak joins between blood vessels), and those who carry a mutated Cystetic C gene or Vascular Malfunction need to be extra careful as they are in the red zone of brain hemorrhage condition.

    The treatment of Brain Hemorrhage depends on its location and severity so does the success of any surgery. There are few treatments available for Brain Hemorrhage such as

    Diagnostic Radiology,

    Interventional Radiology and

    Microsurgical Techniques

    and proper treatment is selected depending upon the type of Brain Hemorrhage. In most cases, surgery is employed in order to remove the spilt blood and stitch the artery to stop the blood leakage. In treating the Brain Hemorrhage by surgery has its own pros and cons wherein the patient can successfully come out of the deadly situation or he/she may loose life or it may happen that the patient might have to give up on functionality of his/her body organ(s) as an after-effect of the stroke (After all it depends on Luck, Doctor and Severity of BH).

    As Brain Hemorrhage causes a severe stroke to the patient, recovery of the patient carries many possibilities, some patients resume their normal life after treatments (which can be a long or short term treatment depending upon therapy used) and on the other hand some patients have to loose the functionality of the organ which was affected by the stroke.
