A Bad Block and a Bad Sector

Is There Any Difference between a Bad Block & a Bad Sector?
Hello, yesterday, my computer took a really long time to restart. Hence, I immediately launched my hard disk diagnosing software and CHKDSK to check whether it was still OK! However, the software showed it had a bad block. But, the CHKDSK said there was no any bad sector. So, what is a bad block? Is it different from the well-known bad sector, right? What can I do to repair my hard disk with a bad block, not a bad sector? What do you want share with us about my case? Thank you for any advice!
