Headache
Seems common, right? Certainly, headache is an extremely
common problem but sometimes leads to a very big problem.
Headaches are of different types including cluster headaches,
tension headaches, and migraines.
Clearly, not every headache is serious but if you are

seeking medical help as it may be a symptom of infection,
tumor, temporal arteritis, and high blood pressure.

Stroke
According to a recent survey report, stroke affects more than 795,000
Americans every year. Well, it’s quite difficult to anticipate the early signs
of a stroke, but you may experience:
• Blurred vision
• Dizziness or loss of balance
• Severe headache
• Numbness or weakness of the arm, face, or leg
• Confusion, trouble speaking, or understanding
A brain stroke can also occur during the cardiovascular procedure. In
order to minimize the risk of brain damage, doctors use
embolic cerebral protection devices during cardiac surgeries.

Seizures
This problem affects every 1 person in 100 Americans. Some
common symptoms of seizures are:
• Loss of consciousness or awareness
• Uncontrollable jerking movements
• Cognitive symptoms, like fear, anxiety, or deja vu

There can be many reasons behind a seizure including high
fever, low blood sodium, lack of sleep, head trauma, and over-
consumption of alcohol. Well, early treatment can help control
the condition and avoid long-term complications like brain
damage and memory loss.
