The most common type of stroke, ischemic strokes occur when a blood clot blocks the flow of blood and oxygen to the brain.
These blood clots are more frequent in areas where the arteries are narrowed or blocked over time due to fatty deposits.
There are early symptoms that appear in the event of these clots, according to Russia Today, which is sudden numbness, weakness or paralysis in the extremities (arm or leg), and this often occurs on one side of the body.
And if you try to raise your arms above your head at the same time, and you notice that one of your arms begins to fall, this may be an indication of a stroke, and it may still appear paralysis on one side of the face.
According to Healthline, early symptoms of an ischemic stroke include:
vision problems
Weakness or paralysis of the extremities
– Dizziness
– confusion
Difficulty walking
Face drooping on one side
One of the most common disabilities resulting from a stroke is paralysis or the inability of muscles to move.
Muscle movement is triggered by messages sent from the brain that controls it.
The exchange of instructions between the brain and muscles may be affected as a result of a stroke, in which part of the brain stops functioning.
When blood flow to the brain is cut off, it causes a medical emergency known as stroke paralysis, a common definition of stroke.
