What exactly are the usual Stroke symptoms in black Americans? Men and women who have strokes tend to experience similar symptoms of stroke including arm weakness, face drooping and difficulty talking. Other common symptoms include difficulties seeing both eyes or just one, problems balancing or coordination problems and hearing problems. Many people with a stroke also experience memory loss. If you have any of these symptoms, you may be at risk for stroke.
Stroke symptoms can occur when blood flow to the brain is stopped or reduced. This results in damage or death of brain cells. A stroke happens when blood flow to the brain is stopped or reduced but does not cause any harm to the rest of the body immediately. The injury to brain cells is what causes the symptoms. As the blood flow stops or reduces, the brain cells die.
However, it is usually the case that if the person has some other type of heart attack or heart disease, there will be more signs and symptoms than with a person who has a stroke. For this reason, it is critical to make sure if you are going to the doctor, you will have all of your symptoms noted. Many times people who have had a heart attack will also experience other signs and symptoms of a stroke. So, if you are experiencing any of the following signs and symptoms, you should get yourself checked out.
* Blood clot – A blood clot can occur in a person’s arteries (the large vessels that carry oxygenated blood from the heart to various parts of the body). There are a variety of different types of blood clot, such as the Aortic Clot, Thrombus, plaque and hemorrhagic patency. There are some types of blood clots that do not form blood clots, known as a thrombus. If a blood clot does form, it is known as an anticoagulant and is one of the most common stroke symptoms.
* Speech Problem – Two of the more common signs and symptoms for people who have had a stroke are lack of speech ability and problems with speaking. Usually, when a person has suffered a stroke, they will have difficulty with one side of their voice, while speaking normally on the other side of their voice. Another sign and symptom of stroke are when a person begins to speak faster than normal. Another problem with speech is when they tend to speak louder than usual and or have trouble making it seem like they are talking slower than normal.
* Temporary Signs and Symptoms – One of the biggest signs and symptoms of someone having a stroke changes to their vision. Sometimes this happens within seconds or sometimes it takes longer, but in either case it can be a symptom that they are developing a temporary ischemic attack (tIA). A TIA is when the brain temporarily deprives itself of oxygen. Some of the most common symptoms of a TIA include, light sensitivity, seeing flashes of light (photophobia), lines and streaks of light, changes in vision and difficulty seeing things at night.
* Seizures – One of the biggest signs and symptoms of someone who has had a stroke can be a severe headache. This is because when the blood supply to the area of the brain that is damaged is cut off, the brain cells do not get the nutrients or energy they need in order to function properly. The result of the lack of nutrients can be that the brain cells start to die. When the brain cells die, the person who has suffered a stroke may experience temporary blurred vision, double vision, or trouble speaking right away. Some people might also experience shortness of breath and even unconsciousness for a period of time after the stroke.
If you suspect that you have experienced one of these symptoms, then you should call your doctor immediately. Stroke Symptoms may not necessarily be in direct correlation with each other. For example, a headache could be caused by a temporary ischaemic attack. If you have had a previous mild stroke, then you could experience a severe headache as well, but that could just be coincidence. If you suspect that you have a stroke, then the sooner you visit your doctor, the better chance that you will survive.
