HERE ARE SYMPTOMS OF AN ISCHEMIC STROKE<\/strong><\/p>\n* Sudden numbness or weakness on the face, in the leg or arm \u2014 especially on one side of the body.<\/p>\n
* Confusion, the inability to speak or understand<\/p>\n
* Problems with one or both eyes.<\/p>\n
* Difficulties walking, dizziness, loss of coordination.<\/p>\n
* A severe headache that appears suddenly without reason.<\/p>\n
There may be no difference in symptoms between the 2 types of strokes, but either way, the wrong approach in treatment can kill the patient. That\u2019s why it\u2019s very important to call a doctor immediately to be diagnosed correctly.<\/p>\n
Apart from the afore-mentioned, there are other symptoms that require you to visit a doctor—<\/p>\n

* The tenseness of muscles in the back of the head.<\/p>\n
* Vomiting.<\/p>\n
* Darkening of the eyes.<\/p>\n
* Looking at one spot for a long time for no reason.<\/p>\n
It’s important to please, note that these signs may indicate a stroke or other health problems.<\/p>\n
SO WHAT SHOULD ONE DO IF THEY SUSPECT SOMEONE AROUND THEM IS HAVING AN ISCHEMIC STROKE?<\/strong><\/p>\n* Ask the person to\u00a0smile.<\/p>\n
* Check if\u00a0one side of\u00a0the face looks strange.<\/p>\n
* Ask the person to\u00a0raise both arms. Check if\u00a0one of\u00a0the arms is\u00a0on\u00a0the same level as\u00a0the other.<\/p>\n
* Ask the person to\u00a0repeat a\u00a0simple sentence or\u00a0poem.<\/p>\n
