A stroke is a huge scare for humanity and one of the various causes of death. It is treacherous in that it affects not only older people but also young people at the peak of their strength.
It only takes one small clot in the brain and it’s bad
Most people have come to believe that not much can be done against a stroke because it comes suddenly and without warning. But that is not the case. Besides the fact that it can be prevented by a healthy lifestyle, there are also — as with other diseases — warning signs and signals that announce it in advance. They can appear several days before the stroke itself, but even a month earlier. In any case, if you notice them, you can prepare for the blow. Of course, for this you should seek professional care. You won’t be able to do anything about it at home.
Signals that will warn you of a heart attack
Shortness of breath: if you start having difficulty breathing and this state lasts for several days, you must begin to look for the cause. It means that something is wrong with the body.
Unexplained pain: If you start having pains in various parts of the body that have no clear origin, seek help as soon as possible.
Illness: if you don’t feel like yourself and you are weak, or fainting comes now and then, it is possible that there are brain problems and you may be at risk of a stroke.
Hallucinations: if you start having an overwhelming number of thoughts in your head that can turn into hallucinations, you must sharpen your attention and in any case see a doctor.
Seizures: One of the first symptoms of a stroke are seizures of varying intensity, especially if they repeat. They are a sign that something in the body is changing, not for the better.
What are the symptoms of a heart attack?
If you fail to detect that you are at risk of a stroke, this condition will eventually occur.
But even then it is possible to act, because the attack first begins mildly and only then strikes fully.
- drooping mouth or eyelid
- tics in the eyes and face

- memory lapses
- twisting of the tongue to one side
