American researchers found that many people may not realize that they have suffered a microstroke.
This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to Ua-novosti.
At the same time, they warned that a microstroke, suffered on your feet, often leads to the development of a “silent stroke.” This condition occurs without obvious symptoms, but is accompanied by deterioration of blood circulation, which causes serious damage to nerve fibers and increases the risk of death.
Doctors focus on the signs, that may indicate a mini-stroke, and urge not to ignore them. One of these symptoms is diplopia – double vision. Another alarming signal may be numbness of the limbs in the morning after sleep.
Other possible signs of a mini-stroke include sudden , severe headache, problems with coordination of movements, as well as speech impairment and clouding of consciousness. In this case, a person may stutter, forget words or lose coherence in their statements. If such symptoms appear, doctors strongly recommend that you seek medical help immediately.
