WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT STROKE:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Stroke is when there is unfortunate blood flow to the brain causing brain damage and rapid symptoms. It’s a medical emergency. You really want to act fast to save the remaining parts of the brain as every second counts!<\/p>\n
There are 2 main kinds of stroke;<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1. Ischemic stroke: because of blockage of a blood vessel in the brain<\/p>\n
2. Hemorrhagic stroke: because of bleeding straightforwardly into the brain or into the space between the thin membranes that cover the brain (meninges)<\/p>\n
These 8 Factors Can Make You More Likely To Have Stroke:<\/p>\n
1. Hypertension<\/p>\n
2. Obesity<\/p>\n
3. Diabetes<\/p>\n
4. Smoking<\/p>\n
5. High blood cholesterol<\/p>\n
6. Kidney disease<\/p>\n
7. Irregular heart beat (atrial fibrillation)<\/p>\n
8. Past mini-stroke (stroke symptoms that lasted under 24hrs)<\/p>\n
Below Are Some Common Symptoms Of Stroke You Ought To Be Aware:<\/p>\n
1. Deviation of face aside<\/p>\n
2. Unable to move\/feel on one side<\/p>\n
3. Slurred discourse<\/p>\n
4. Loss of vision in one side<\/p>\n
5. Dizziness<\/p>\n
6. Weakness<\/p>\n
7. Headache<\/p>\n
There could be other symptoms of stroke depending on the part of the brain where blood flow is affected and the sex of the individual.<\/p>\n
Once You Suspect A Stroke, Don’t Waste Time, Do This Immediately:<\/p>\n
\u2022 If you’re alone, shout for help!<\/p>\n
\u2022 If there’s emergency line dial fast!<\/p>\n
\u2022 If there’s none, move patient to hospital fast!<\/p>\n
The more seconds you waste, the more brain tissue gets damaged! Early treatment of stroke with medications like “clot busters” can reduce the brain damage.<\/p>\n
Also other treatment modalities will focus on reducing the complications and preventing more strokes from happening.<\/p>\n
There are many complications of stroke <\/p>\n
1. Brain swelling<\/p>\n
2. Abnormal blood clots<\/p>\n
3. Chest infection (Pneumonia)<\/p>\n
4. Depression<\/p>\n
5. Bedsores<\/p>\n
6. Seisures<\/p>\n
