The carotid arteries are present on the left and right sides, and supply blood flow to the brain. Certain conditions, such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and diabetes can lead to a progressive narrowing of the blood vessels. It is possible that this causes a stroke or can cause an emboli to cause a stroke. Your physician will obtain appropriate studies to evaluate your carotid arteries when indicated.
