10 Signs of a Stroke

Stroke Sign #5: Headaches
When the brain is undergoing a stroke, the victim will often experience a severe headache. A headache in itself could be caused by a huge variety of somewhat benign causes, meaning they are usually not a cause for alarm. The headache associated with a stroke, however, is noticeable in that it is particularly painful.
The headache from a stroke is often unbearable, possibly making it stand out as unusual. If somebody is suffering from a headache this severe then it would be wise to seek emergency medical attention. It is easy to dismiss a headache as a common and harmless affliction but doing so in severe cases can be fatal.
