Dr. Navneet Kumar answering readers' questions in Dainik Jagran Hello. Awakening
Jagran correspondent, Kanpur. Cold weather increases the risk of brain stroke due to shrinking of blood vessels. This problem occurs in people suffering from uncontrolled blood pressure, diabetes and obesity. In this, the blood supply to any part of the brain suddenly stops. Which causes blood clotting. If there is sudden deterioration in physical balance during winter, difficulty in vision, change in voice, weakness in hand and weakness of one part of the body are the main symptoms of brain stroke.
If such symptoms appear, consult a doctor without delay. If these six symptoms appear, the life of the stroke victim can be saved by doing a CT scan within four and a half hours to study the severity.
