What are the warning signs of stroke?

The stokes have symptoms which act as warning signs. Transient ischaemic attacks are an important warning sign that a stroke may occur in the future. The signs of a stroke can include a numb or weak feeling in arm or leg, the face, trouble speaking or understanding, the unexplained dizziness, blurred or the poor vision in one or the both eyes, loss of balance or an unexplained fall, difficulty swallowing, headache, confusion and unconsciousness.

Stroke warning signs include: • Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body • Sudden confusion or trouble speaking or understanding • Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes • Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination • Sudden, severe headache with no known cause. Not all of these warning signs occur in every stroke. When symptoms of a stroke occur and then resolve on their own in a short period of time, a person has experienced a transient aschemic attack (TIA). Although TIAs usually go away within minutes, they should be regarded as very serious. TIAs are major warning signs of an impending stroke. One out of every 10 major stroke victims had first experienced a warning TIA. The lag between a TIA and a major stroke may be hours, days or months. One-fifth of all strokes that follow a TIA occur within the month. Half occur within the same year.

Stroke is generally characterized by sudden visual disturbances, including blocked or loss of vision in one eye, blurry vision or “graying”; weakness, numbness or clumsiness in one arm or hand; language problems, including slurred speech; facial droop or weakness; dizziness or stumbling; or the abrupt onset of a severe headache.
