What is ‘Beauty Parlor Stroke’?
About 10 to 20 percent of human births are narrowed on one side of the artery. . In people with this condition, when another thick-sided artery bends or when hypertension develops in the neck, the thin artery is compressed. It can lead to stroke in some people. Pulling the hair backward and forwards with the hands while washing the hair puts pressure on the blood vessels near the neck. In this way, pressure is placed on the important blood vessel that supplies blood to the brain, and there is a risk of stroke due to lack of blood supply to the brain. In this particular incident in Hyderabad, the left artery of the victim was thinned. Then the doctors who treated her explained that she had a stroke while washing her hair.
