According to doctors in the neurology department, a stroke occurs when fat deposits in the form of blood clots or plaques form in the blood vessels. This reduces or completely blocks the blood flow to the brain. This blocks the flow of oxygen and nutrients in the blood. Due to which brain cells die within minutes. Bleeding in the brain can also lead to a stroke in some cases. When the damage is very extensive.

Tingling in some parts of the body:-
People who experience a stroke may experience partial paralysis in their face, arm, or leg. In most cases, it occurs on one side of the body. To identify this, the patient is asked to raise his/her arm/leg or smile.
Decreased vision:-
Sudden partial or complete vision loss is another symptom to be aware of. This can occur in one or both eyes. In some cases of stroke, the patient’s vision may come and go. Partial vision loss, on the other hand, is less severe. Retinal artery occlusion causes a blood clot to form in the eye, which can lead to permanent blindness. It can also be caused by a stroke.

The immediate reaction to brain damage can be dizziness, imbalance, and loss of coordination, making it difficult for the patient to walk, sit, or move.

Unexplained severe headaches are an important symptom that should not be ignored. They are the first sign that something is wrong with the brain. Timely intervention by medical professionals is crucial for recovery after a stroke. Being aware and proactive about stroke symptoms and getting regular checkups are essential for the best treatment.
