What are the symptoms of a minor stroke?

Mild cerebral infarction is an early stage of cerebral infarction, a common neurological disease that can be life-threatening. The symptoms of mild cerebral infarction are very obvious and are also an early symptom of cerebral infarction. Patients may experience symptoms such as stuttering and blurred vision.

1. Stuttering:

Symptoms of mild cerebral infarction include slurred speech, drooling, and signs of stroke, which may occur suddenly.

2. Blurred vision:

It manifests as transient visual impairment or visual field loss, which usually recovers on its own within 1 hour. Regarding the symptoms of mild cerebral infarction, experts conducted fundus examinations and cerebral blood flow measurements on 10 patients with transient visual impairment and found that 3 of them had central retinal artery occlusion and 7 had branch retinal artery occlusion.

3. Continuous yawning:

When cerebral arteriosclerosis gradually worsens, the lumen becomes narrower and narrower, cerebral ischemia and hypoxia worsen, especially when the respiratory center is hypoxic, the symptom of mild cerebral infarction is yawning reflex. Frequent yawning occurs in about 80% of people within 5 to 10 days before an ischemic stroke, and is an important warning signal.

4. Razor landing:

It means that when you are shaving with a razor, your head turns to one side and you suddenly feel your arm become weak and the razor falls to the ground. You will fully recover after 1 to 2 minutes. For symptoms of mild cerebral infarction, this is caused by turning the head and twisting the neck, which causes the already hardened carotid artery to twist, aggravating the stenosis and leading to insufficient blood supply to the brain.

5. Blackout: sudden blackness in front of the eyes and inability to see anything, which recovers within a few seconds or minutes. Nausea, vomiting, dizziness and impaired consciousness are also symptoms of mild cerebral infarction.

6. Clinical symptoms:

The common clinical symptoms of mild cerebral infarction are complex, which are related to the site of brain damage, the size of ischemic blood vessels, the severity of ischemia, the presence or absence of other diseases before the onset of the disease, and the presence or absence of other important organ diseases. In mild cases, there may be no symptoms at all, that is, asymptomatic cerebral infarction; it may also manifest as recurrent limb paralysis or dizziness, that is, transient ischemic attack.
