A stroke commonly arises from either a blockage in the brain's blood vessels or from the rupture of these vessels, leading to haemorrhage. In this video, Dr Arvind Kumar Lakesar, Consultant of Neurology at Narayana Hospital, Jaipur, shares crucial information on stroke symptoms and their treatment.
Types of Strokes
- Ischemic Stroke
- Hemorrhagic Stroke
Following a certain period, reduced blood flow leads to cellular death in the affected area. This condition can be promptly identified through several symptoms.
Common Symptoms of Stroke
- Facial drooping or tilting to one side

- Numbness or weakness in the face, leg, or arms
Other Unusual Symptoms Include:
- Double vision

It's crucial to get such patients to the hospital without delay quickly. Timely treatment within 3-4 hours of experiencing stroke symptoms, often termed the golden time or window period, is essential to prevent permanent damage in the affected area.
