  1. carotid artery

    The carotid artery is one of the major blood vessels in the neck that supplies blood to the brain, neck, and face. There are two such arteries on either side of the neck - the right and left carotid artery - each of which further divides into the external and internal carotid artery, supplying blood to different parts of the brain and facial region. The proper functioning of these arteries is vital to our circulatory system and brain health. If blocked, it can lead to serious conditions like a stroke.
