A stroke is considered a medical emergency arising from damage to the brain. A stroke requires a medical diagnosis, lab tests and emergency care.<\/p>\n

Symptoms of stroke include numbness or paralysis of the face, arm and leg.<\/p>\n

Research has indicated that 43% of stroke patients experienced mini-stroke symptoms up to a week before a major stroke.<\/p>\n

Symptoms of mini-stroke may include numbness in one part of the body, blindness in one eye, loss of balance and slurred speech. A mini-stroke may be described as a transient ischemic attack.<\/p>\n

Can drinking water reduce the risk of getting a stroke? According to research by Loma Linda University, to reduce the risk of stroke by 53%, you should drink at least 5 glasses of water per day.<\/p>\n

Can stress cause a stroke? Stress can cause the heart to work harder, increase blood pressure and increase the fat and sugar levels in the bloodstream. These things can expose persons who are over-stressed to create clots forming and travelling to the brain, causing a heart attack or stroke.<\/p>\n

Some strokes last for a few minutes whilst others last for hours or days. <\/p>\n

Stroke can be cured in two stages. First, the doctor administers a medication that restores normal blood flow in the brain. Secondly, the patient is required to participate in rehabilitation to cure the secondary effects.<\/p>\n

What are your thoughts on the ongoing discussion?<\/p>\n
