What Is Intracranial Hemorrhage?

An intracranial hemorrhage or brain bleed is a type of stroke that causes bleeding in your head. When this occurs it means that a blood vessel leaks blood or bursts. A brain bleed can collect blood or pool within your skull and brain. This change can cause pressure against your brain preventing oxygen and nutrients from reaching your brain tissues and cells.

"Intracranial hemorrhage comprises 4 broad types of hemorrhage, including epidural hemorrhage, subdural hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and intraparenchymal hemorrhage. The first 2 types of hemorrhages epidural and subdural are referred to as extra-axial hemorrhages, whereas the latter 2 hemorrhages subarachnoid and intraparenchymal are categorized as intra-axial," the National Institute of Health (NIH) explains. "Each type of hemorrhage arises from distinct etiologies, leading to variable clinical findings, prognosis, and outcomes."

Researchers claim that a brain bleed or intracranial hemorrhage is common after falls or traumatic injuries. They also say that it is common in people with unmanaged high blood pressure.

Symptoms Of Brain Bleed

According to the Cleveland Clinic, the first symptom of intracranial hemorrhage or brain bleed is a sudden and painful headache. Other symptoms include:

• Nausea and vomiting: These are some common symptoms of a brain haemorrhage that can be persistent and may occur repeatedly resulting in discomfort and distress.
• Confusion: A sudden brain bleeding may cause loss of consciousness that may range from brief episodes of confusion to prolonged periods of unconsciousness.
• Seizures: The sudden cause of intracranial hemorrhage or brain bleed may cause uncontrolled electrical disturbances in the brain
• Slurred speech: Difficulty in speaking or understanding simple speech, a condition known as aphasia. These changes may occur when the brain that functions language is affected by a brain bleed.
• Tingling, numbness or paralysis: A person who experiences an intracranial hemorrhage or brain bleed may notice tingling, numbness or paralysis that may affect the face, arm, or leg on one side of the body
