Stroke symptoms are sometimes hard to recognize. Stroke symptoms develop suddenly without warning and can be life-altering. Stroke symptoms are divided into 2 categories; central and peripheral. The difference between these two categories is that, in the case of a central stroke, the victim’s brain stem has been damaged, which leaves them without control over most, if not all, movements of the body. In the case of peripheral strokes, the injury has gone from the outside of the brain to the inside, but still leaves the victim with some movements of the body.
The most common stroke symptoms are: a tingling or numbness on one side of the head, usually the side of the temple or cheek, with weakness or tingling in another area of the arm, and difficulty speaking. The person may be unable to smile, gaze, or even hear. The arm or legs may be weak or seem stiff. Stroke symptoms may also include an uncontrolled shaking or trembling, difficulty walking, slurred speech, inability to swallow, constipation, blood clots in the feet, unconsciousness, fainting spells or convulsions. If you experience any of these more common stroke symptoms, you should see your doctor immediately for emergency treatment.
Nontraditional patients are more likely to experience symptoms of strokes. People who smoke, have high blood pressure, are overweight, and/or have high cholesterol are more likely to have this type of stroke. Stroke symptoms tend to run in families. For example, if a sibling has had a stroke, you are more likely to have a stroke yourself. Stroke symptoms and signs are different for everyone, but there are some common ones.
Most people will experience mild to moderate stroke symptoms and signs. These signs and symptoms will decrease over time. There is a difference between what the patient experiences and what the doctor thinks the patient is experiencing. Sometimes, these signs and symptoms do not decrease, and sometimes they do. Stroke symptoms depend on how much memory the brain has. If there is a deficit in memory, the person can experience memory problems including forgetting what happened just before or right before a stroke.
Other warning signs may include loss of consciousness, dizziness, decreased vision, a severe headache, a twitching or trembling, sweating, depression, and feelings of incompleteness or lack of control. The severity of stroke symptoms may vary from mild to severe. If memory loss is present, the patient will need to take extra care when going back to work, shopping, or general daily activities. Loss of consciousness and dizziness can affect someone for a lifetime. If someone experiences a severe headache, they should see their doctor immediately because this could be the symptom of a serious complication.
Stroke symptoms and signs should not be ignored. Stroke occurs more frequently than you may think, so it is important that you are aware of what is happening to you. A stroke can be fatal if not treated properly. So it is important that you seek medical attention even if you feel like you are okay and just going through the motions.
There are many types of treatment available to treat stroke symptoms and signs. The most commonly used treatment is the use of antiplatelet drugs. Antiplatelet drugs block a platelet from sticking to brain blood vessels, which prevents the brain blood from clotting up. This medication should not be taken with aspirin or other blood thinners because they will not stop the blood clotting process. Antiplatelets are usually recommended to be taken shortly before a person gets sick or has a big accident because it takes time for the antiplatelet drug to work on the clots in the brain. Doctors recommend that you should take antiplatelet drugs for one to two weeks to fully recover from your injury or illness.
Another symptom that can signal the need for medical attention is loss of consciousness or difficulty with memory. If a person tries to talk and fails to say his or her name or does not recognize objects or people, it is a sign of brain-related problems. A person who forgets things or faces confusion for no apparent reason is more likely to need medical care. It is also important that a person less likely to get sick, wears anti-theft footwear and does not walk around too much when at rest. These preventative measures can help reduce the risk of a person having more severe brain-related problems.
