Strokes are dangerous and can occur without warning.
However, symptoms can emerge up to a month beforehand, such as weakness or numbness on one side of the body, sudden vision loss, severe headaches, or dizziness.
Transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), also known as “mini-strokes,” may temporarily mimic stroke symptoms.
Other warning signs include trouble speaking, difficulty with coordination, and unexplained shortness of breath.
If you notice any of these symptoms, seek medical attention promptly to avoid serious complications.
