Early signs of Stroke

Strokes occur due to problems with the blood supply to the brain: either the blood supply is blocked, or a blood vessel within the brain ruptures, causing brain tissue to die. A stroke is a medical emergency, and treatment must be sought as quickly as possible.

• Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding
• Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes
