i got a call today that my father had a mild stroke so i will like to know what are the causes and of course the preventive measures. thank you

Stroke is the general term used to refer to a cerebrovascular accident.There are different causes of it but the most common is hypertension.Often people are undiagnosed(ie they don't know) or they know but are not compliant with their medication.You can prevent it by checking your bp regularly and use your medication faithfully if u av been diagnosed with high bp.
