Explanation:
Heart attack = سكتة
Stroke has nothing to do with the heart. It is a clot that forms in any part of the body, usually the legs because of poor blood circulation. Then it travels into the blood stream until it reaches the very tiny blood vessels in the brain and blocks the blood flow to parts of the brain causing a stroke.
