General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hemorrhagic stroke means that some of the blood vessel in the patient's brain got damaged and blood oozed out. When this happens brain tissue is damaged due to compromise in blood supply and due to pressure by the pooling of blood in brain. When areas which are responsible for consciousness are affected then it results in altered consciousness same is with vomiting.
