Answer 2

I hope ths answers your question

Haemorrhage in the brain can be from a vessel that has been under high pressure (usually the patient has hypertension - that is high blood pressure) or from an abnormal vessel that has formed with a fragile wall which is called an aneurysm. Most aneurysms go undiagnosed and never bleed but some do. I guess broadly these types of brain haemorrhage are strokes because they affect the brain tissue itself by losing its blood supply. The seriousness of losing blood supply depends on whether or not there are other blood vessels sharing the job of supply which are still working and whether or not the area of brain is important! There is lots of brain that we dont really need for normal function!
Other bleeding can come after trauma on the outside of the brain closer to the brain case (skull) and this puts pressure on the brain but the blood supply to the brain is ok and once the pressure is relieved there can be return to full function. Usually this is the sort of bleeding we get following a car accident or motorbike accident or a nasty fall where we bump our head.

Let me know if there are any more questions
