Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and adult disability, but quickly recognizing the signs of it and seeking immediate medical care from specialists can minimize the effects of the disease or even save a life
Five Sudden, Severe Symptoms," that could signal the onset of a stroke.
1.Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg on one side of the body.
2.Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding.
3.Sudden trouble seeing on one side.
4.Sudden, severe difficulty walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination.
5.Sudden, severe headache with no known cause.
Any of these symptoms can occur in a mild, fleeting way and not be worrisome, but if any one of them comes on suddenly and is quite severe, it could signal the onset of a stroke, which increasingly is described as a "brain attack," because like a heart attack, a stroke requires immediate action to improve the odds against disability and death.
